any tips or tricks that might help me? I am going to have 6 strobes. There is going to be a model in front of the car. I am thinking 2 strobe should blow out the BG? 3 to light up the car and one for the model? Would you do it different?
Thanks!

With view cameras, sometimes the models had to hold still for a minute, but you shouldn't have any problems with your faster lenses. Car Studio Shots Good luck! Sweet!!! thanks a lot. They have hot lights but I didnt want to screw around with them. But hell if it worked I just may. Don't try to confuse me with the facts, my mind is already made up.

That's just me though. My village called. I was told that they missed me.

That's just me though. Yeah that would make for a better lit shot of the car but She was sitting on the car or leaning up against it. I would rather take out hot spots than add a reflection. I lit it for her more so than the car. I had to put some grids on though. Don't try to confuse me with the facts, my mind is already made up.
