Which Softbox Works For You? | 8 Lighting Modifiers Explained | FIELD TEST

[@hypop]

Tried something different! Let us know if you want to see more field test in our future videos! TIMESTAMPS: 0:26 Introduction 0:39 Rectangle Softbox Lighting Modifier (Godox 80x120cm Rectangle Softbox) 1:27 Diffuser Sheet (360x150cm Diffuser Sheet) 2:17 Octagon Softbox (Godox 120cm Octabox Softbox) 3:10 Parabolic Softbox (Spectrum Pro 120cm Parabolic Softbox) 4:02 Lantern Softbox (Spectrum Pro 80cm Lantern Softbox) 4:49 Softball Diffuser (Jinbei 50cm Softball Diffuser) 5:32 Beauty Dish (Hypop 80cm Beauty Dish Softbox) 6:19 Diffuser Umbrella (Godox 43" Umbrella Diffuser) 7:08 Softbox Results Comparison

[@prewishjay5581]

the first and second lighting modifiers arent they better to light the background than the 120cm octa?

[@ivanguerra1260]

The diffuser Sheet the best ! and you can buy it in some whereelse by a dollar or adapt it to an old umbrella....

[@jbandphotos]

Yes, That would be great!

[@QuoteMinute]

This is by far the best comparison between different diffusion systems I've ever seen!

[@hypop]

Thanks, we appreciate the comment!

[@mopunchstudio9289]

The fact they tried to keep everything the same while comparing is excellent.

[@ekoconnect2382]

The diffuser sheet seemed to have the most pleasing result followed by the omni directional lantern and ball. The cheap 43" umbrella also had a nice look. Thanks for the review.

[@hypop]

Definitely agree! If you're after nice even lighting for the entire shot then the diffuser sheet and 43" umbrella will get the job the done. This is also dependent on the output of your flash so look at flashes 400W and above when pairing with these types of modifiers.

[@antidoteify]

Agree no shadows, no wrinkles

[@icreatecontent67]

@@hypop Hello, why is it that the 400W or higher is preferred here ? Am I Missing something ?

[@dellacalfee]

@@icreatecontent67 because so much light is lost spilling in other directions you need a stronger flash. While the other types of softboxes capture and direct more light toward the subject

[@jaylesto_thephotographer]

I was thinking how the cheapest option still has a great outcome

[@bekanenzar]

Funny how I watched this exact video almost 2 years ago when I was about to get my very first softbox... now I'm back again trying to decide if I should get the rectangular or circular softbox for product photography. Safe to say its a banger video 💯

[@Jason-rs1wr]

It's always safe to use a rectangular or square modifier for product photoshoots. We shoot mostly flat lays on our baby/kids clothing products for our e-commerce shop. I previously used a 2x4' softbox. However, I find it to be bulky and limited in terms of size especially when I'm shooting teens' clothing. One of my favorites is a diffusion fabric hung across two C-Stands over the product. This is very versatile since you could just easily bring the C-Stands closer together or further away if you want a larger modifier! But because of the weight of the diffusion fabric, it always gets pulled towards the products. It doesn't really affect the lighting but I don't like things getting in the way. So recently I improvised a 4'x4' frame using a stainless rod and elbow pipe fittings. This is a really good modifier since this is really huge but not bulky as the softbox. Using only one C-Stand we could put this frame with a diffuser over the products for flat lays shoots or we could position it just like any other modifiers.

[@silvere36]

Honestly, on first view through, I had a hard time really seeing the differences. I think the change in pose and clothing made the comparison difficult. Really cool to see all the different options though.

[@nick8418]

It‘s because the model is placed to close to the background…

[@ВалерийСаксофонов]

Yep. The model should have been keeping the same pose with different modifiers!

[@jasonbodden8816]

The differences were very apparent to me *shrugs*

[@jaylesto_thephotographer]

I would have to agree about the outfit change because of the way the light reflects on the fabric

[@sharonraboy3358]

Yeah, for a real comparison it should have been same clothes and composition... It's really hard to see much difference between them

[@pruett89]

The quality of this video is so high. Glad I found your video.

[@hypop]

Appreciate the support!

[@tonyhaggerty9433]

This is the best example of softbox comparison I've ever seen! It is exactly what I was searching for! And no bad Jokes or raising your voice! Thank you thank you, thank you!

[@edurmissa]

The Diffuser Sheet is just so amazing; not in vain, that is the cinematographic crew style, they work all the time with a big light and cloth. In fact, it doesn't look fancy, but as we just watch, it works amazing. The main problem is that you need extra supports or more people to hold it. If you get a 5 in 1 reflector, something from 1.20m or bigger, you can get something similar to this.

[@hypop]

Agreed! A reflector with the translucent/diffuser surface will also achieve a similar result!

[@bearer0975]

Good job. Its nice to see that your video actually is well lit, well composed, and in-focus. It's crazy how so many photo channels are overlooking this!

[@MrSyngamer]

Now its even harder to choose... BECAUSE IT ALL LOOKS SO GOOD HAHA. Great job displaying and explaining the differences!

[@fangbifxx]

This is the best short and clear explain the different between these.

[@hypop]

Thanks, glad it was helpful!

[@MrMolotov69]

I personally thought the diffuser sheet looked the most natural and felt less ‘sourcey’ in comparison to the different softboxes and umbrellas. The Jinbei ball looked pretty good too but is obviously the less portable option.

[@edmeldrum3342]

Thank you For a simple yet direct description with type of use Photography . Thank you

[@nicolasrouxditbuisson2369]

Clever, professional, usefull. Thank you for the time spended on it. You help me to choose my next tool.

[@hypop]

Glad to help

[@TheShelbinator3000]

Great video! Would love to see a version without the modifier spill, where the light source and subject are pulled away from the background and where the background is lit separately and evenly. Could help the audience understand each modifier better with relation an isolated subject. Though this is definitely very useful when space or # of lights available to the photographer are limitations.

[@tmflk]

The best light explanation video I’ve seen! Thank you!

[@hypop]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Si0bart]

Great to hear catchlight, and what each is for, simply put. Great video,

[@gmrtrinidad]

I'm in love with the Diffuser Sheet!😍😍😍

[@bekanenzar]

This video is soooooo underrated. The explanations are brilliant and very easy to understand

[@hypop]

Thank you so much! Glad it helped you out 😍

[@bala1000mina]

Thank you so much Rob for the awesome tutorial about those modifiers! God bless you and your colleagues!

[@hypop]

Appreciate the kind words!

[@alistairnitz]

Thanks Rob. This an impressive video again. I like the field tests as a way to test lighting products.

[@hypop]

Thanks Alistair, glad you enjoyed the video!

[@CutieSparkling]

This has to be the best lighting video EVER !!

[@hypop]

Thanks so much!! 😃

[@steveparkins6854]

Fantastic...real world comparison --very grateful!!

[@Htoon2008]

This is one of the most honest reviews I've ever seen. I really liked it and it serves as a guide. The light from the ball is really very beautiful, but the one from the diffuser sheet enchanted me more than all. Grateful for your video.

[@hypop]

I appreciate that!

[@chvgsmandre]

This video has the info I've been looking for, spent over 3days looking for this kind of video and it's funny how I kept ignoring it everytime it pops up. So glad I watched it.... Love the colour palette for the shoot

[@Phirangipani]

Awesome facts and incredibly explained! Would love to see your future videos.

[@hypop]

Thanks and glad it was helpful!

[@DigiDriftZone]

The results looks surprisingly similar. The octagon softbox gets the vote from me though for the versatility. Especially a softbox where you can add/remove an internal diffuser which can be gold/silver to add a beauty dish type effect, or add an external diffuser to soften it up even more (in combination with the internal diffuser or on its own) and then add a honeycomb grid on top of that when you need a darker background and less light spillage.

[@mrdennischapman]

This was an extremely well produced video. One comment, meant to be constructive, is that I would like to have seen one of each face shot with the modifier name below so that I and others could do a side by side comparison. Otherwise I have to jump back and forth from picture to picture by finding them on the timeline because some of the differences are very subtle. What I am going to do is to do a screen shot of each face and put the modifier under the photo and then past each of these pictures on one page so that I can compare......this will consume a lot of time but will be worth it.

[@hypop]

Thanks for the feedback. We'll definitely work on implementing a side by side comparison for future videos. We had the final comparison at 7:08 however all in one screen would be a lot easier to view.

[@oscarsoto3176]

[@nitinh2499]

Nicely done. I like the way you’ve brought out the differences between the different modifiers. First time seeing those lantern modifiers... you learn something new every day. 🙂👍🏼

[@andyvan5692]

great comparisons, for fashon and portrait photographers, but one tip, the dress and pose are different in each shot; so, each reflects highlights differently, and more/less skin showing, as compared to the reflective fabric mean the light quality can't be consistent, even if the light is placed in the same spot. also a comparison of modifiers for use by other photographers, ie; car, product, or industrial, location photographers, what is the best choice for them.

[@hannahlee3239]

Let me know if you find a video that has the best suite modifier for cars, outdoor portrait, etc!

[@Swizzenator]

Your model knew exactly how to use and complement her looks posing. The closeup shots had incredible depth and detail. I didnt see what camera and lens were used.

[@dash251]

Good stuff all shots were dope

[@MC-hr1py]

This video had me looking at diffuser sheets for the first time ever, closest thing to natural window light IMO.

[@paulwatson5030]

Excellent review for a newbie like me! Thanks.

[@hypop]

Thanks for watching!

[@nikilragav]

The full sheet is by far the softest since it is the largest source. The rectangular looks slightly different. The rest all look almost the same. The ball seems to be hardest (should be the smallest source from the subject's point of view)

[@pagpapaitim]

i really liked the ball diffuser out of all of them.

What led to more highlights, a harsher light, and more contrast isn't the fact that the 80cm Beauty Dish Softbox is shallow (that actually creates more light spread) but that it's silver. Nice vid, though.

[@hypop]

You're definitely correct. There a beauty dishes / beauty dish softboxes that also have a white internal lining for an even softer light.
