    Excellent for photo beginners….

  13. Tapajara says:

    @stewartx5 I was about to write the same thing you did. An outer cover that
    is silvered would reflect some of the light back through.

    Yeah you’re a racist idiot. Keep hiding behind your anonymity, coward. But
    you can’t hide forever… watch and see. Watch and see.

  15. CircleModelDevelop says:

    @stewartx5 not you then.

  16. madichelp0 says:

    Don’t ask racist questions and you will not get racist answers, it’s that
    simple… And wtf is that question anyway, why wouldn’t anyone photograph
    black people?

  17. stewartx5 says:

    Contrary to video (1:08), a black background on a translucent white
    umbrella does not actually reflect any additional lighting back onto the
    subject. Instead, the black backing simply absorbs any light which would
    normally pass through the white translucent material. If you truly want to
    gain that light intensity back, your umbrella must have an interior which
    is both more reflective and less translucent – such as an umbrella with a
    non-translucent white plastic or rubber interior.

    Could u explain a bit more on the sizes of the softbox? How do i determine
    which size to use, let’s say for a group photo of 5~10 ppl (full body),
    thanx in advance.

  19. Arnolds Auziņš says:

  20. CircleModelDevelop says:

  21. twistedwitches13 says:

    I use the white umbrellas with my lights and I like them.

    Please remove the text, it is covering the whole screen in my smart phone.

  23. guitarz04 says:

    Scott Kelby says “DONT EVER USE A REFLECTIVE UMBRELLA…EVER” use a shoot
    through or a softbox.

  24. Chris Clayton says:

    WRONG!!! the opaque umbreallas are for shooting THROUGH the umbrella….do
    you really know anything about photography???
