                I feel like I’m the only one who’s not incorporating power or water into my shoots nowadays.

                Ha true. After levitation – powder is rather over-done these days.

                Hmmm, did I always learn wrong or is Kai making a mistake regarding the ‘shutterspeed’ flashduration? I was told for speedlights (like de 580EX or SB600 etc) it’s true, the higher the power, the longer the flash duration thus the longer your subject is hit by light, like Kai says. However, studio monoblocks work in a different way and if I recall correctly, the higher the power on those, the shorter the flashduration is. So for those studio shots you should go to 1/1 or 1/2 to get the most ‘freezing’ of the action.
                No?

                excelent videos!

                Also, given that he’s shooting at 1/32 power with those fancy strobes, there is zero reason for him to not be shooting burst. Duh.

              • David Parrott

                Stefaan, it depends on the model. That holds true for some studio strobes, but some new ones that utilize IGBT (like Einsteins) throw that paradigm out the window.

                Interesting, thx David!
                I’m not very technical on that part. What is the case for Falcon Eyes, Jinbei & Elinchrom?

                I only know of the Einsteins that have IGBT. Do you know if there are other brands/models out there that have that?
