I also have a speedlight. So, set up? Or give up? Please help!!!!! Depends on the power, but I would say almost definitely yes. I lit a group of 7 people today with just a single flash gun. For a group of this size, the only real option is flat lighting, so as to avoid any fall off across the group. summerdreamnMember December 14, 2008 at 10:57 pm ciaran, thanks. flat lighting? goes to check the internets. at this stage, i’m not thinking creative, just evenly lit! randomwayMember December 14, 2008 at 11:05 pm This might be of some help: http://strobist.blogspot.com/2007/05/on-assignment-two-speedlight-group-shot.html And you could give us a hint what kind of power your lights have… Zoltan summerdreamnMember December 15, 2008 at 9:46 am thanks, guys. i’ve been too scared to put it down (ostrich syndrome). i have 2 400w lights. goes off to read strobist. thanks! yorizzMember December 16, 2008 at 8:42 am Wow! flat lighting for groups… has nobody learned anything in the past 360 years? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Night_Watch_(painting) Viewing 6 posts - 1 through 6 (of 6 total) You must be logged in to reply to this topic.
