One Light Fashion Portrait, Mola Setti BTS Video...

Hopefully someone finds this video helpful.

Testing out the Mola Setti 28" Beauty Dish.

Very nice.. thanks Craig. Beautiful work and awesome dish.

Thank you Craig for sharing.

Does the quality of light differ between shooting 3/4 and full body? Obviously it's bigger than a stock 22" beauty dish which is only effective as a beauty dish when shooting headshots.... so I assume you still have that "beauty dish" effect even shooting at full length? correct?

by far my favorite modifier, if i could only have one the Setti would be it, I have a grid and the sock making it even more versatile

Thanks,

I emailed the Owner of Mola.

According to him, for head shots the suggested distance from your subject should be roughly 4 feet.

For 3/4 6 feet away.

Full body 8 to 10 feet away.

The farther the light source the harsher the light.

Those are just rough guidelines, you may prefer different distances.

Hopefully that answers your question.

Here's a link to a recent article I wrote for SLR Lounge
with a little more information about the Mola Setti.

okay...so even the Setti cannot retain it's "BD light effect" when shooting at full length.


Reason people are using combos with a BD.
