How to use a good fill light

For the fill light, we should pay attention to the direction and angle of the flash lamp head, and use the reflection law, that is, the incident angle is equal to the exit angle, to estimate the light falling position of the reflected light, so that the light will fall on the subject after reflection. This lens works well.

Choose an external flash. Try to choose a flash with a large adjustable angle up, down, left and right, which will be more convenient and flexible when lighting. Flash lamps with built-in reflectors are generally expensive, or using white cardboard fixed with rubber bands as reflectors is a good and cheap alternative. The size of white cardan can be controlled freely, and the effect of filling light is often better.

Introduction of fill light lamp

Fill light lamp is a kind of lamp used to compensate some equipment or plants for lack of light. There are usually three kinds of fill light, one is camera greenhouse fill light (also called plant fill light), photography fill light (also called camera fill light) and license plate fill light (also called white light).

Camera fill light is also called camera light, headlight, news light, etc. Its main function is to provide auxiliary light when shooting in the case of insufficient light, so as to get reasonable picture material. Camera fill lamps have excellent control performance, such as adjusting brightness, color temperature and displaying remaining power.

In the past, the camera fill light used halogen bulbs, which were connected to the mains. Has been eliminated. Most of them are LED fill lights. Because of its high light efficiency, low voltage, small volume, long life, fast response, strong earthquake resistance, energy saving and environmental protection, it is rapidly popularized.
