  • Q&A: Avoiding Cross Shadows When Rim-Lighting

    Strobist reader Ed Roper asks:

    I've been using a three-light setup, but running into a pesky shadow problem. Below is an example setup shot with the shadows highlighted. As you can see, I'm already using grids to try to cut down on the spill.

    Are these cross shadows just a fact of life when trying to wrap full body like this?


    The good news, Ed, is that you have exactly the light mods you need to do this well. And the fix is easy… Read more »

  • Just posted: Olympus E-PM1 (PEN Mini) preview and video

    Just Posted: Olympus PEN Mini preview and video. Behind the bluster of the latest announcements, the Olympus E-PM1 has started hitting the shelves. In many respects it’s pretty similar to the E-PL3 (and it features most of that camera’s enhancements over the previous PEN models). It’s built around the familiar 12MP sensor, shoots 1080i60 HD video and features an array of Olympus’ Art Filters. It stands out in one respect though – it’s the least expensive mirrorless interchangeable lens camera we’ve yet seen (in terms of list price). We’re working on a review but, in the meantime, have put together a preview article and video.

  • Reviewed: Sony NEX-5N 16MP mirrorless camera

    Just Posted: Our review of the Sony NEX-5N. The 5N is the second generation of Sony’s more enthusiast-focused mirrorless models. It offers the well-respected 16MP APS-C sensor and the option to fit an external electronic viewfinder. Although the bodywork is near indistinguishable from the original NEX-5, the latest model gains a touch-screen interface and in-camera lens correction processing as two of the most obvious of its many changes. We’ve spent some time getting familiar with the 5N, to see if it delivers on the NEX concept’s considerable promise.

  • Maki Kawakita’s Theatrical Light

    Photos ©Maki Kawakita

    By Irwin Wong — A largely self-taught photographer, Tokyo and New York-based commercial photographer Maki Kawakita now shoots ad campaigns for major Japanese and US brands as well as working on her own series of self-portraits.

    Shown here are Kawakita's photos of Japanese rock icons Glay, which were done in 2009. As with many of her shoots, the location is as much the subject of her photos as are the people.

    How to commandeer a glitzy hotel lobby so she can fill it with her heavily gelled flashes? Turns out that part is pretty easy. It is the lighting itself that's a bit more complex… Read more »
