The ULTIMATE one Light setup on a BUDGET (Anyone can do this)

[@MannyOrtiz]

I hope everyone is having a productive Monday so far. Also Thanks for 500k! Hope you love these tutorials and if you have any request, lmk 🙏

[@Lamision316]

What’s the difference between this flash and the godox ad 200 ? Thanks 😊

[@MissedTheKeys]

Manny. Love your vids, man. I need help, tho. I was shooting my wife with a strobe, shoot thru umbrella and an a7III. When I start focusing, she’s bright but them once it locks focus, the screen goes really dark. I’m not doing one thing but I don’t know what the heck it is. I feel like it’s something in my settings.

[@mortadaal-dhahabi3671]

You can add a translation in Arabic

[@mavfan1]

@@Lamision316 the Godox is pushed online by an army of Godox fanboys, many whom are probably employees of Godox. That’s the difference.

[@BigAntTVMedia]

Where’s the canon r5 setup though this all Sony stuff

[@xthindiesel166]

Thank you for FINALLY thinking about us everyday normal portrait photographers who can’t have a $20,000 setup.

[@DJ_Detailz]

I’ve literally searched KZbin for so long just to find something like this

[@briyonajordan1503]

Right! Lol

[@alsteiner7602]

Been watching this channel for years and I think he does a fair amount of cheap gear BTS videos

[@mikeuptonphoto]

I remember the first time I shot with flash, it was like the planets aligned. I had no idea what I was doing but I was like, "woah, this is a game changer". It seriously doesn't need to be some $1,000 studio strobe to get pro results.

[@CaviteTechnology]

same experience :)

[@babyyoda2213]

build quality, modifiers available, color accuracy and consistency. This video is good for beginners and hobbyist but if you're trying to be pro and land big clients investing in industry standard equipment that lasts for a while is a must

[@Ricky_Desch]

I just got my first flash yesterday. Whoa!!!!

[@glynnpowell7864]

@Peter Alexander no. Just no. Flashes don’t break that easily.

[@josselincastaneda7133]

Same 😭😭 it wasn’t just the flash it was the umbrella, the soft box and the mount flash holder I was like Woooow!!!!

[@rickyhurtado]

The internet is reading my mind! I told my wife just this morning that since I've saved up some monies, I wanted to invest into some lighting gear but purposely wanted to stay within a budget... then this vid is the first thing I see when I open my KZbin. Thanks, Manny!

[@sophiah0822]

Quick and to the point man. That was exceptional information without the need for 15-20 minutes of filler. Keep up the great work.

[@dondi2129]

Umbrellas are the most underrated modifier out there. I love a good white shoot thru umbrella

Manny, this is just what I needed. I have an A6400 and this type of budget flash setup is exactly what I would want. Much appreciated!

I have the a6400 and ad200 as well

Hello

[@theaaronbrothers]

This was honestly so helpful, it such a time efficient manner. I used to always use natural lighting and was hesitant, still kinda am, to learn something outside my comfort zone. Videos like this are exactly why I follow Manny. Will be buying this gear soon to use for myself in the future. THANK YOU

Hello

[@DeniAngelica2402]

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! What a easy and affordable set up you've introduced to us. Super grateful for this knowledge.

[@thefitnessgladiator6779]

I like how you explain in full detail your photography process, gear, and how you’re using it.

[@a.jol.sr_photography]

This is seriously a video all beginners should watch. Start off slow and work your way up the the high end stuff. Thanks for sharing!!

[@dennygreenonyt]

Dope. The progression of your career. You two are awesome together. Keep going. Really good video by the way. This is for about 85% of us. Besides we are all from the Chi so extra big ups. 💪🏾🤣🤣

[@Skux720]

Thanks for featuring an ACTUAL budget set up! I have a second-hand Yongnuo manual flash, wireless trigger and cheap umbrella. Easily less than $60 and it makes my photos look like they used hundreds of dollars worth of gear.

[@LeslieDelshaun]

I am new to the photography world. From Chi-town! ✊🏽 but I am loving the pics, feedback and great tips. Much appreciated

[@mariaperpectuacastillo1426]

same

[@fowlkeskm]

🤣🤣🤣🤣 right.

[@kenzito101]

He's not wrong though. Compared to a professional camera that fashion photographers use, the a6500 is *relatively* cheap. Especially if you get the body used. Tamron lenses for Sony are affordable too.

[@backdraftmagnet]

@Dalton Beauregard inexpensive *

[@MrJueKa]

great tips, thanks for sharing 👍 keep things simple as long as you can, that`s what I like most - a speedlite, a translucent umbrella, if possible set the light angle of the speedlite to wide angle to avoid a hotspot in the middle and cover the back of this set-up with a light-proof black cloth to simulate a softbox and to suppress light scattering as good as possible, this might help sometimes to be more effective even when using a cheap umbrella - be creative so use different flash and model positions and distances from the background, change the background color, so use a light grey background and a hidden second speedlite with different color gels only for the background, so you can get any color you like, otherwise it will be boring in the long run - there`s basically no right or wrong, there`s only the photographer's own preferences - the equipment doesn`t always have to be new, that saves money not only if you`re on a budget and you can't see it in the photos 😉

[@MONQTV]

One of the best tutorials I've only subscribed to 3 this is the third. Thank you for the tips. As a beginner it really helps

[@careylee5951]

I think it's nice of you to dial it back down to gear basics, it helps us(those without the high end gear) to see images like these can be done with minimal kit. Thanks again for all you do.

[@RRRRRRnBBBBBBBBB]

Amazing channel. I don't understand why I'm just finding it now but I'm glad KZbin finally suggested your channel to me. Intentional and simple explanation of information that answers beginner and amateur photographers like myself. Keep up the exceptional work.

I paused the video at 0.06 and wow😂😂😂😂😂it’s really a new release light. Awesome manny very awesome.

This is on point Manny. People forget about speedlight. They can give some awesome results for not much money.

I don’t know why I’m so attracted to your channel... I don’t even have a camera :( Yet I come here every video! I’m so glad you make videos and once I do get my camera I will love these even more!! Keep up the great work with your channel, I truly appreciate it!! 👍😄

[@charlie44]

Get yourself one! You will not regret it. Since you are watching videos like this one there seems to be some sparks.

[@Eihei]

You can get some awesome results with really cheap cameras! And i mean REALLY cheap. Like $50 cheap. Check used Olympus E-PL1(around $50) and Yi 42.5mm lens for it, you can get it from aliexpress for around $50 too! It will give you some really awesome results! You will have a lot of fun with it! Also if you'll want to get rid of it you won't lose any money since it will not get any cheaper anymore ;)
