Creative Macro Photography Lighting using Adaptalux

[@victormultanen1981]

Epic shot of the flower through the droplets using continous light and epic music.

Thank you mate

[@Adaptalux]

Jens, the flower shots are STUNNING!

[@anotherperspective3076]

Thank you Ben!:)

[@wolfamri]

Great one, Jens. Those flower shots look amazing. Adaptalux even has those UV arms. They look pretty tempting too!

[@anotherperspective3076]

Thank you, yes i need try them;)

[@tomforbes3284]

Very creative use of a great lighting system. Thanks for the information and inspiration.

[@anotherperspective3076]

Thank you:)

Fantastic beautiful close-up images Jens 👌

[@anotherperspective3076]

Thank you:)

Cool equipment, over-priced, IMO. Creative do-it-yourself folks can likely put together a suitable/flexible system. I prefer constant light sources to flash (focus ease and light modeling preview), Jens. Nice footage, but the misting was overdone, IMO - less is more. TBH, for value and versatility I prefer Lume-Cube products. Ever try them? Might make for a few good vids. Cheers!

[@anotherperspective3076]

Its really cool, but the price is huge... true. I have not used the cubes, but those could be a powerful cheaper alternative, maybe thid could be a topic for a future video, who knows;)

[@5RustyBin]

very cool light but damn they are a bit pricey no?

[@anotherperspective3076]

True....:)

[@DivineHunter888]

Very good images

[@anotherperspective3076]

[@Funkatastrophe]

Hi, what is the stand with the flexible arms called? Thanks

[@anotherperspective3076]

Its called "Helping arm" or "third hand"

[@ernestmartinez4106]

I paid more than half a grand for a set of adaptalux ,some of the lights flickers all the time or go off suddenly. Very unreliable system I contact customer service they said try cleaning the contacts or connections . Did this but it remained the same from day one after receiving the item. Maybe I got a bad apple but wouldn’t recommend to buy ,as it’s quite expensive.

[@shadda]

crazy expensive though. For just a pretty basic kit I'd expect to pay $1k

[@anotherperspective3076]

true...

[@dretwav]

I have the system but have been very disappointed with the build quality and reliability. Parts just fall apart. Much too expensive for such low quality workmanship.

[@anotherperspective3076]

Parts Fall apart? Are the Magnets not strong enough? Did you contact Support?

[@dretwav]

@@anotherperspective3076 Magmets fall out and get lost both on lighting arms and diffusers. Support was good about replacing but kept happening with different parts and I finally just gave up on using it. I also found the pod to be pretty unstable and hard to balance. Of course your tripod looks bigger than mine so I can't really fault Adaptalux for that. The plastic mechanism for aattaching the pod to a camera shoe is very weak. Again all in all I find the build quality poor. I love the concept of the lights. I wind up using lume cubes with filters most of the time now if I use continuous light. Most of the time though I just use flash and have never tried Adaptalux flash.
