Learn how to use LIGHT in photography | Best First Light for Photography

Beginning photographers often struggle to use flash as a learning tool. In this video, I review a constant light that could be a good tool to learn great lighting, the Zhyun MOLUS G200. This is the first video in a series of videos to help beginners learn lighting.

I learned lighting using constant lights. I'm hoping this series will be helpful to anyone struggling to learn lighting.

Great presentation Hayward! Very cool light!

Thanks for watching!

Thanks for the video - I've had to send my G200 back - the Bowens mount was so, so stiff that most of my Bowens modifiers would not even go on (they've been fine with all other lights). And to prove the point that their mount is too tight - Zhiyun's supplied in-the-kit reflector was as tight as your soft box. Did yours ever loosen up? Have been told it was an issue with earlier ones - mine was one of first release - is yours one of the newer ones?

Mine was pretty early so I assume it’s the same as yours. No not really looser, but I don’t really change modifiers on it all that often so I might not be the best judge.

@@CoffeeandPhotographyTalk Thanks - shame apart from that it's pretty awesome light - love the way I can mount the lite, small head high on the stand and control with power brick at waist height (app also good)
