How to Shoot Razor Sharp Water Splash* - Speed Shooter Ep.2

[@alansmith72]

If I had that flash I probably wouldn't take any photos. I'd just keep triggering it at 10 fps and grin from ear to ear! 😁

[@randomrazr]

that flash just destroyed my canon 430ex

[@thomasjbrablec]

Obviously. Your flash costs $300, this costs $13500.

[@randomrazr]

no shit sherlock

[@thomasjbrablec]

I was just stating a fact, you're the one that started with the dumbass comments.

[@randomrazr]

the fact that you reply a month later and your original comment was pointing out something common sense and obvious was the "dumbass comment"

[@thomasjbrablec]

The time it took me to reply doesn't change a thing, actually. Dumb comments require dumb answers, you're welcome.

[@srivastava767]

This is the best video by DRTV so far!

[@edwintangch]

Shots when Kai 'fight' with the water are awesome!! The one when Kai holding the cup as well Great job man!!

[@aresha888]

wow..so awesome!! one of DigitalRev's best videos so far :D not really something i would spent money on but the results were to die for. great work guys!

[@MikaelMadsen]

Ok, awesome. Next episode should be the same but how to do it with a normal budget. Like the fire episode.

[@Dragoslav_MD]

What exactly is "normal budget" for you? 99% of cost here is a camera, lenses and flash...

[@Dragoslav_MD]

You could probably get similar results with much cheaper equipment but it would take much more time and much more shots to get great ones.

[@MikaelMadsen]

Dragoslav Miljević I guess folks following the channel already have a camera, so 99% of the cost would be a professional flash. So maybe you should look up exactly what the price of that flash is they are using. Maybe, just maybe. People with no own studio want to try this and could use some tips and pointers on what gear and so on should be used.

[@brodyd81]

***** Its not about the gear you have. Its the innovation you possess.

[@MikaelMadsen]

Brody Driscoll Oh ok. I'll try this without camera and flash then. Thanks

[@Mikeyt2000]

can we get a "budget" version? lol

[@johnmichaelleslie4835]

You just rent the kit...

[@DigitalrevTV]

Bowens CREO? ;)

[@musings2134]

What is your Height Kai? And also Lok's?

[@nirajlama23]

Michael Truitt criicrimcri

[@sima3547]

Michael Truitt exactly that's why this videos are shit. This guy is pain in the ass

[@BoY860]

Makes you respect others work even more. Alot goes into some of the shots we see and don't realize it sometimes. Cool video sir.

[@kishascape]

The work and challenge is what makes it fun.

[@leopadresnow]

it's one of your best videos for the last couple months :)

[@SyntheticFuture]

If you got 20 Grand to spend on a lightning setup there is a lot of fun to be had xD

[@kishascape]

That 10fps strobe burst nearly made me orgasm. Finally did when they did it with that sexy beep turned on.

[@paulnguyen2144]

love the pics of lok! always has a very cool style

[@holsteincowboy]

$9000 for a flash !

[@kennyfrommar]

I can only find it for $14,000!

[@Floppydonkey]

Best video you guys have done for ages... Great results...

[@SuperDigitalMe]

Wowzers!!! Very nice photography!

[@w0rt4x]

Absolutely stunning result! Definitely worth trying.

[@simonepusceddu44]

9000 for flash, but is nothing compared to the results, great job lok and kai!!

[@taiyakiqueen4295]

Lok makes an amazing model!

[@youravantgarde]

Best episode in awhile

[@This_Is_Not_My_Username]

Might as well rename the video to "How to blow 10 grand to take picture of water"

[@rolithesecond]

And that's just the flash. Now add the camera (1d?), the rig, the foil,and all the other stuff and you'll be topping 18000 I guess

[@Shadowdncer]

The power pack is over 10K (USD at least) on its own.

[@durotube59]

You "blow 10 grand" if you ditch everything after shooting. I'm pretty sure they kept everything. And... This is a promo video which got 275k hits, so they'll make money out of it. And... Even if they do NOT make money out of it... they'll make it anyway 'cause it's adv for their shop.

[@HackingDutchman]

Wow, those photo's look great!

[@MisookSensei]

I love these types of tutorials!!!!

[@tiedtkeio]

Bloody hell, this was amazing! :D

[@yxchin]

Love it ! The photos turned out awesome !

[@dodi3bodi]

Who would dislike this video? I love it. Keep going

[@TwentyTwinkleToes]

Great video. Was exactly what you said it was, and gave me a lot of great (imo) ideas. Thanks and keep them coming!

[@yellowmarsh123]

Best episode yet

[@BitsAndPieces2024]

This is one cool episode with great shots!

[@kurtisca]

Awesome as always!

[@erocdraHXAM]

Take a look at Priolite M-Pack 1000 Hotsync, they are Portable @1000Ws! Possible Cam Sync is 1/8000s (or 1/16000s @ 1D Mark1). So you can freeze with a wide open aperture and the best you can use it outside of the Studio

[@RosePhoto1]

Wow! Those were some amazing shots!

[@iBug]

Wow, the _water-cutting_ shots are quite impressive. Good job !

[@kishascape]

Could've framed it better though. Too much on the sides and background and you can still see the white plastic after scrubbing in photoshop.

[@GoProGuy12]

These shots are awesome

[@HardRock471]

Brilliant shots.

[@buddah610]

The flash was amazing! I loved this vid! Cheers....

[@EricBalcon]

Broncolor scoro 3200 : $13,424.55. That a solid price.

[@xavierng1771]

Kai is unusually charismatic in this video!!

[@oysterhoister8781]

epic results well done

[@isb_realty]

best channel on youtube (Y)

[@hanhramuwan8074]

I've been watching this channel for a year, and this is the first time their finished product actually looks good

[@KawanBest]

outstanding shots!

[@fcallophoto]

1:00 LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL I love Kai faces

[@gabrielarditi]

Can't wait for Leica T hands-on review!

[@katk925]

my god those were beautiful!!! damn you guys now I wanna buy a stupidly expensive flash system!!!!

[@ShaunJon]

That looked hella fun!!

[@prathamkasar]

amazing clicks !! loved them

[@blaed011]

That was really, really, cool. Great video!

[@ajcphotography2128]

loving some of these shots :) gunna have to try some

[@xserban]

Finally something really good!

[@jjrosaria]

I love this episode!

[@Mathview]

BTW who invented stroboscopic photography? As far as I know, it was MIT Engineering Professor Harold "Doc" Egerton who did the first milk drop crown, bullet through balloon, and more seriously "freeze frame" images of the exploding first A-bomb at Alamogordo test site.

[@johnmichaelleslie4835]

I'd have thought you might get somewhere just using a fairly powerful flash (600EX-ish) set to its dimmest manual setting (plus having a very dim option, at least 1/16th and ideally lower) and shooting in a darkened room. Then adjust the power upwards to see the most light that still freezes motion to an adequate degree. Flashes only have one brightness level and change the amount of light they output by how long they are on (as even the longest setting is still shorter than the time the shutter is open). Hence setting a flash to manual at 1/128th power will give a pretty short pulse of light. A Canon 580EX at 1/128 gives something around 1/35,000 sec, even 1/16th is circa 1/15,000 - plus you still have 127/128 or 15/16 of the energy left in the capacitor, so will be ready for the next shot pretty quickly. Full power is 1/833 sec BTW. (I have 580EXIIs, but ran across the numbers for the original gun first. Ah, and just found the II is pretty much the same.)

[@UltimateDivaStyle]

Add a fan to the water spray!

[@LedHead4Life910]

Yeah, maybe we can freeze the motion of the whole studio being electrocuted! :D

[@tiedtkeio]

Vito Strat Hey fluttershy. XD

[@blackhawkphotos]

That was cool guys! Great job!

[@sabitahmed2686]

Nice video Kai! You guys are awesome

[@leonardomoura4935]

this channel is fucking awesome!!

[@XxDiNeVsKixX]

BAAM..you guys gotta upload more often..Jared Polin uploads often ;)

[@rahummi20]

Great work guys.

[@Bodybuildingleague]

We need more reviews: Sony a6000, Sony A7s, Panasonic GH4 and other

[@astatinepc1369]

Amazing shots!

[@dbauernf]

Nice shots, guys!

[@prestonlhouse]

Really cool shots!

[@holdmytakeyou]

this is purely an eyegasm for my eyes.

[@AustenThomson]

Ha! That looks like you had good fun on that shoot!

[@mg_williams]

Very cool!

[@hydrokat143]

this looks so fun!

[@GrantUchida]

damn those photos were epic

[@MosEpicTristan]

Awesome. Since you guys shot fire and water speed shooting. Your next speed shooters video could be on other elements like wind, static,electricity, lol

[@Mathview]

Wow! Wow! DigitalRev TV Exceeds All Expectations! Nice work.

[@mightyken]

Amazing photos!

[@scpzheke]

Very COOOOOL! Good Job!

[@stuartcarson9378]

That looks so much fun.

[@ArjitMehra]

This was brilliant!

[@zebarzebra]

Endlich mal wieder eine DRTV Folge wo nicht alles schief geht..

[@BobbyL]

I'm only sorry I can't hit like 20 more times! Awesome!

[@bkspicture]

Awesome episode!

[@W4iP3]

Amazing, but it was coolest when you did this kind of shots with Cheaper equipment.

[@puffinpaladin6329]

Essentially all this video taught me to do was 'spray and pray' when it comes to high speed photography, which doesn't seem very informative.

[@lifehacker123]

And use a geeky flash system. Don't forget that.

[@NathanBLawrence]

When you're going this fast, you don't really have a choice. Human reflexes can't make these shots happen. Even in the film days, you would use a camera with a super fast drive and tons of rolls of film.

[@TheBorsten]

would love to know if autofocus was active an which aperture you shot with. Looks crisp!

[@Karenyamilcastro]

I really liked this video! Is looks kind of fun! NICE VIDEO :D

[@thejhambi]

To the people complaining about the cost of the flash... You do know you can rent gear right? In the US at least, there are quite a few places you can rent gear from, even over the internet, that will allow you to rent by the day or just for a weekend. You wouldn't have to actually buy the strobe/lighting seen in this video to get a chance to use it. If you really wanted to do a photoshoot like this, get a small group of friends/photographers to pool a bit of cash and rent the gear (1 person isn't likely to use it 24 hours a day for 3 days) . If you had a few people chip in and already had cameras, you could do this for well under 200 dollars each. Not cheap, but if you were serious about building a portfolio or something, it wouldn't be too far out of reach, and it would be a cool experience working with the pro gear.

[@jdevans2640]

Very nice results!

[@8khdrworld]

PLEASE SEND BEST 4K DSLR CAMERA OR Professional camcorders

[@keittven]

Great shots!!!

[@CoffeeCatable]

I saw you did a review on the NX100 but I really would like to see a NX30 or NX300 review. Everyone on that video seems to agree as well because 90% of the comment section is a pool of people asking for NX300 review.

[@toefurcub]

that was a great video guys - keep em coming!

[@Emperor-2029]

Really Love it! very nice! Perfect!

[@mossalli2010]

please can u do new alpha a6000 review !

[@fabibloggt]

Great Video Thumbs Up :) Greetz from Germany

[@whitestar8409]

Good work!

[@K-R-O-L]

Nice creativity !

[@RareMade]

Will you guys be doing a comparison between the Sony a7s and the Panasonic GH4?

[@AtomicCortex]

You want to compare a full frame sensor to a micro four thirds sensor? are you having a laugh?

[@ChengHooSew]

Jaime Duarte 2 not nikon or canon is fine but let's make it fair. FF vs macro four third? It's like comparing SUV with a track car.

[@RareMade]

Cheng Hoo Sew Thats true but i just wanted to see 4K quality to decide which i want so i can have options you know what i mean and ive heard you cant shoot 4K internally with the a7s so just wanted to see since i wanted help with a comparison video

[@ChengHooSew]

THExRARE if you're getting one for 4k shooting I think the Panasonic is better. I'm an a7 fans here and actually own an a7r but the Panasonic just more flexible when shooting 4k although 7s clearly have better low light performance. But like you said it can't internally record 4k. And I think it have the 30mins limit as well. Not sure about it.

[@AtomicCortex]

Cheng Hoo Sew It is more like comparing a jet to a go-kart

[@alltkangronska]

Thank you - will try to do this today!

[@benvollert]

Please do some reviews of some loong primes! I'd love to see a review of the 400mm f5.6! :) thanks!

[@Comp3630]

5:39　That's a NIKE AD, if you've ever seen one.

[@alasanonimo8303]

Amazing video.... awesome !!!!! Where can I learn to use a flash?

[@NFEC84]

Awesome video i would like too see some of the shots post processed though.

[@itsMUSICY]

Please do a review on Pentax K-3! 

[@xavierng1771]

If you know Kai well enough, you will know by now that fast burst rate and expensive flash systems makes him turned on :)

[@gewglesux]

Karl Taylor uses those flash systems too.. just recently too.... nice video DRTV!!! very cool indeed! Photography is not a cheap hobby... This confirms it. but it is a lot of fun!

[@OlympicGaming]

wow, i :LUVED this! so awesome pictures
