    Hey everyone,

    Normally I can't contribute to thisthread because I do a lot of glamour shots that aren't nude but just might be a little to risque for the group and I'd rather not take the chancebut here area coupleshots from a shoot I did on Friday...

    Great shots Fred. Is that a three light setup (large softbox right, striplight behind left, and light on background)?

    Hey Sean, thanks.

    I was using only what was available to me at the time. It was a 3strobe setup. I was using a stripbox to the right and a little forward set at f5.6, another stripbox behind leftset at f8, and the third strobe with a 20 degree gridfor the background set at f8. I would have used a large softbox with a grid (to control the spill on the background) on the rightif I had it available but it was being used at the time. I also had planned on using a 4th light as a hair light butfelt it was unnecessary for the shots.

    Fred~

    Fred,


    The first picture is stunning! The color saturation, the detail. Just fantastic. It is incredibly smooth, solid, vibrant color. If that's what a 1Ds Mark III can do, I may have to sell my car.

    Thanks for your kind words. It is a wonderful camera but it helps to have great lenses and lighting setup too. Hope you have a couple of vehicles to sell []
