Tips for Using Marelux strobes and Accessories
Marelux ambassador Keigo Kawamura reviewed Marelux's new flashlights and provided tips on using the flashlights and accessories.

Pattern1

Attach the Dock to the strobe to clearly distinguish between areas that are illuminated and areas that are not illuminated. To reduce the appearance of floating objects by not shining light behind the subject.Effective lighting for creating perfect black backgrounds and BW photography.It also allows you to clearly outline the subject.

 

 

 

 

 

Pattern2

 

When photographing large objects with a 100mm class lens, there are floating objects between the port and the object. By moving the strobe forward, it is possible to reduce the appearance of floating objects in front of the port. Furthermore, by attaching a dock to the strobe, the irradiation angle can be narrowed and the irradiation area can be limited.

 

 

 

 

Pattern3

If the subject does not move at all, you can use a strobe with a SOFT function to secure it on a tripod and send the signal using LumiLink.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pattern4

Use a strobe with a color filter to shine light from all directions, and use even stronger light for snoot lighting.

 

 

 

Pattern5

Shine filtered light from behind the subject. In this case, the front of the subject is in shadow, so there is no need to use appropriate white light to cancel out colored light. Furthermore, even if the brightness of the background is changed, the subject is less likely to be affected.The effect of colored light will appear better on nearly transparent subjects, and light from behind the ground can create dark areas in the photo due to the undulations of the ground. You can create a more chic atmosphere than shining colored light evenly from the front.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



 

 

 

 

 

 

Pattern6

 

Application of pattern 5. Light only the subject with a snoot, and use a fixed strobe to light only the effect board placed in the background. Although the subject moves, the effect board does not move, so the strobe can be fixed on a tripod.
