lighting equipment




I am exited because this Friday I am getting new lighting equipment! It took some time to sort out what I need and want.

First I thought I wanted two or three Lowel Omni lights, Daniel Greene uses these for his demonstrations to light his model and his canvas and palet. He uses 300w light bulbs. This is a great set-up but for taking photographs it is a bit hard and with use of a filter you also loose a lot of light.

So now I have decided to buy a Lowel Rifa light with a Pro-light as a second light source. Take a look at the Lowel website for more information. At the Lowel Edu site you can try out different lighting settings yourself and experience the effect.

Here are the technical specifications of the set I am buying:

Rifa eX 66 Pro Kit
- Rifa eX 66
- 650 W, 120v lamp
- 1 Pro-light
- 200w, 120v lamp
- 1 Pro-light 4-way barndoor
- 1 Pro & i Gel frame
- 1 Ks jr. stand
- 1 uni stand
- Pro & i gels
- Rifa 66 daylight gel set


I will keep you posted!
