What challenges have you faced during an on-location photoshoot?

[@quincyaugustus2506]

not sure if anyone cares but if you guys are stoned like me during the covid times you can watch pretty much all the new movies on instaflixxer. Have been streaming with my girlfriend these days xD

[@dustinjamal8689]

@Quincy Augustus yup, I've been using InstaFlixxer for since november myself =)

Good job team

😍😍😍

[@faisalamir4659]

some good examples in this presentation. some pics with flash & some with continuous (stella clx8), how to decide when to use flash or continuous ?

[@BandH]

Whether to use flash or continuous lighting would depend on the application. For those who want to see their results immediately, one might choose continuous lighting. One who needs to stop action might choose a flash.

I am sorry but of late B&H has really had some boring speakers in their event space. These images are just average and nothing special that I can see. Have you run out of interesting photographers in New York. I used to only watch B&H event space shows, but these aren't worth it. Too many other interesting photographers with content on KZbin now days.

I have a order & since two days ago and the request has not been processed right now, and I have not received a notification about the status of the request yet!

[@BandH]

Please send an email to [e-mail] with your order number for a status update, thanks!

At about 9 minutes the green of the landscape and that of the short match horribly!

[@wjohnson20]

Please repeat audience questions.

[@RayValdezPhotography]

I shot group shots in the midday sun. it was so annoying and disappointing. the lighting is horrible and group shots make it worse since i cant place lighting close to the subjects

[@shaolin95]

Get the glow wing like umbrella, 88"..maybe just what you need for those situations

[@darianrundall6618]

I've had this situation. I put a bare bulb strobe over my shoulder and had them face away from the sun. It's not the best situation but their faces will be properly lit and they'll be happy.

[@RayValdezPhotography]

@@darianrundall6618 it was tougher because they had to pose on a big statue a certain way. and away from the sun the statue casted shadows over the people. it was such a pita. People need to learn that midday sun is terrible for photography

[@darianrundall6618]

@@RayValdezPhotography I don't think they ever will learn, lol.

[@RayValdezPhotography]

@@darianrundall6618 all these cellphone cameras out here and they still dont know jack about natural lighting and good times of day to take photos.

[@richryanphotography]

tittle says everything i need to know.... not sure what happens in the rest of the video, but since the first 25 minutes was just samples of your work I moved on to another video.... very disappointing BandH presenters are usually much better

[@romiemiller3093]

It seems to me tht you would have removed that shiny piece of trash in lower center that's distracting (?).

[@Iskhakoff]

I hate it when he coughs right into the mic

[@dayeah765caoni3]

You know the society is hopeless when people joke about gun violence against themselves 😂

[@brentm9848]

Some really unfortunate lighting in some of these studio portraits.

[@VeryImportantPepe]

That guy doesn't knoow what he's taalking about!!
