  1. It's ONE STOP - don't worry about it - experiment and take a stop either way EACH WAY. Over and under expose to get used to your own kit. DO NOT believe that the black plastic things you have in your hands are FULLY accurate - they're not. Your kit is your kit - play around and find out where you like the settings to be set. Remember soldier, your weapon was made by the lowest bidder....
  2. NICE BRIGHT PICTURE !!! YEAH - good studio ad. Some days you turn up and it's grey plus dark nasty and getting darker but you can ALWAYS work daylight studio plus a couple of lamps to give a soft studio look if you know how to use a flash meter and a couple of lamps. Learn the flash meter. (with daylight and lumens) .... Without it you can waste a LOT of time and money.
  3. OK - I've shot thousands of these and it's easy. You need a decent cove in a daylight studio and a couple of lamps to sculpt the model. You meter the daylight and then expose for it plus what you're going to give in sculpture (VERY little) and then minus the difference. Simple. Get the maths ? If you don't go back to basics. Two soft boxes (look at the shadows from the models legs) and you just have one a half stop off the other to give contour and contrast. (look at the models face, it's lit from one side just to give a bit of sculpture). The weather doesn't matter. Daylight is daylight and it comes and goes - through the studio roof it might shift a stop or two and you keep an eye on it during the day. PS - this is a daylight studio for those who have never been...
