The difference between soft light and fill light

The specific difference lies in light effect, application scene, light effect adjustment, light source and use purpose.

1, light efficiency. Soft light can create a soft and natural light environment, which is suitable for people photography and product photography. Fill light can provide strong and concentrated light, which can be used to supplement or enhance the light in the environment.

2. Application scenarios. Fill light lamp is usually used in low light environment to increase the light of the environment. Soft light lamp can be used in low light environment or sufficient light conditions, so that the overall brightness of the picture is more balanced.

3. Light adjustment. The fill light is prone to problems such as the LCD light is too close to the main body, the light is too tough, too concentrated and oily. Soft light lamp adds a layer of coating in front of LCD lamp to make the light softer.

4. Light source. Soft light is inspired by professional soft light equipment. By adding two layers of ink in front of the led light source, the light is softer, the color temperature is controlled between 4800 K and 5400 K, and one or more LED spotlights are added beside the front camera of the panel as the light source to supplement the light.

5. Purpose of use. Fill light is mainly used to improve the clarity of camera shooting in low light environment. In addition to this purpose, the soft light lamp can also improve the overall light effect of the picture in a well-lit environment.

Appearance. Soft light lamps generally have one or two coatings on their appearance, while fill light lamps do not have this design.
