yeah GREAT QUESTION and one i truly wish they would address. it makes me nuts i have to export from lightroom and THEN import - that is not new tech. any way i digress... :) i export from lightroom (i have a preset i created to export as a full TIF >> to a dedicated folder on my desktop called EVOTO EDIT then drag and drop into Evoto >> edit the image then EXPORT to full jpg to a folder called fully retouched (this folder is in the main image folder (basically the job name) with the other raw files.

agreed!!

O. M. G. Your comment made me scratch my head... I HAD NO IDEA IT WAS THERE!!! LIGHT BULB MOMENT!!

hope it works for you!

not that i have found - super annoying i agree. its even worse when you go into the styling tab... then it removes all the retouching. so - im sure they will get to working on some of those user quirks... well... i should say i hope they do. :)

@@Keyboardwarrior42 unless they’ve changed something in a recent version. The results are nowhere near the same. I’ll have to take another look at them

@@SalCincotta1 that would be great! Would love to see a comparison video.

appreciate you!

good call.

ty so much!! im a huge fan of the product.

@@SalCincotta1 I took one of your classes at shutterfest... Hope to see you at another workshop in the future! It was probably one of my favorite classes!

you can export to a tif or jpg... so for me - i like to add some of the light room presets - i think they are better. i export to tif sometimes and do some additional retouching in photoshop if needed, but thats normally only for removing objects or more heavy lifting that photoshop is better at.

@SalCincotta1 thank you so much for the info. I'm new so I was just wanting to know if I was doing something wrong on my exports. Again thank you for the response.

agreed!

ty ty!

ty so much!! glad youre enjoying it!

yeah i dont know if i can agree with you - i actually zoom in and show the texture.

@@SalCincotta1 texture is still not fully there. Ask them how they do the texture. Fs,dust and scratches based then you lose data.

@@000CloudStrife yeah again - not trying to argue with you but at 4:10 i literally zoom all the way in - not sure if your screen isnt showing resolution, but you literally see her clogged pours on her face. not sure what else you would want from software. also - keep in mind the optics used will add skin blur. if i shoot something at f.1 vs f4 vs f5.6 - skin will have a natural softness to it. again - i have no skin in this game (pun intended) but in all my years of doing this for clients - ive never had a need for more detail than im showing in 4:10. billboard? makeup shots? perhaps, but thats a different editing technique alltogether. for the avg client - i dont think there is anything better out there right now. this is very usable for me in my studio.

@@SalCincotta1 I’m not talking about zooming in I’m talking about how the formula works.

@@000CloudStrife but who cares? im a photographer. i care about how it looks not how they do it. am i just not understanding? i care about what i see on my screen, how it looks, and how it prints if thats a requirement.

it really is insane how quick and easy it is and clients love the results - which is really all that matters.

agreed. but then thats an entire series on editing... i like this because of how quick and easy they make it. i mean... its insane!

any camera you can afford that support HSS. I would google it for sure, but i will tell you - dont be afraid to buy something used or refurbished. especially when you are on a budget or just starting out.

ty so much for your kind words!! ty for watching.

ty ty

huh?

absolutely. 100% depends on if you want hard or soft light, but you are correct - technique is the same. and ty!! cheers.

great question!! and worth pointing out.. its usually one of two things... 1) shitty makeup either by your subject or the HMUA and a professional makeup artist should know better... they should not be using a mineral based makeup because minerals like zinc - will reflect light. and or 2) oily skin with or without crappy makeup. :)

i would always rec using the same transmitter as the light manufacturer. in this case im using the westcott system and trigger.

Thank you!

cool.

nothing wrong with that!

My pleasure!

i mean... surely the dress comment is a rhetorical one, right? as for the light - yes, almost all flashes come with a cold shoe mount with a screw adapter underneath it for light stands.

Never seen Fashion shoots where models wear all sorts of attire nobody would wear in that particular type of location? This is done quite often. Everything is not meant to make real world sense. Where's the fun in that?

i cant honestly speak to that... i dont believe it has a fan, but i work in 100+ degree temps on weddings and senior shoots and i have not personally run into over-heating issues. but shit... sounds like you are pushing the limits of a lot of units!! :)

OK, thank you for the feedback Sal. We currently currently use Profoto as well, but want a couple more location rigs and are looking at the Westcott system as a more affordable system to use.

@@whiterock1865 i have both... and yes westcott is much more affordable.

Glad I could help! and yes - having worked with A LOT of different units... and then getting into post production and seeing a noticable color shft... it can be a giant PIA to get everything to look the same. Some people dont care as much... but i am a fan of this new FJ80-V2. Much better built than the V1.

Glad you liked it!! truly allows you to work FAST!

ty ty! yes - you would have a trigger for the flash on camera - sits in the hot shoe. if you notice in the video - i have one sitting on camera - its usually the same manufacturer as the lighting company.

@@SalCincotta1 Thank you!

BINGO!!! Im sorry this happened to you, but im happy to see this post. a lot of times when i talk about this - people scoff at what im saying and just want to keep touting a certain brand because its cheaper... great... so you saved some money on a cheap brand... but now you are spending tens of hours jerking around in lightroom to get color to match up. and in a scenario that you are talking about - those images MUST LOOK THE SAME! Hope this little tidbit helps you!! Sal

@@SalCincotta1 most definitely useful information. I had no idea about this so I was rather confused. This definitely gives me some things to consider going forward 🙏🏽.

Glad it helped!

Awesome, thank you!

Yes! Thank you!

Thanks!

Thank you!

Excellent

got it. thanks. super insightful and reflective comment. lots to think about here.

you are very welcome! and the answer is YES. AP moves MUCH MUCH FASTER and in my opinion is more accurate than manual mode in outdoor conditions. studio? 100% manual mode.

Thank you!!!

BINGO!!

I have found that the ones who object to OCF are either scared to death of it or too lazy to learn. So I ask them how they would like to double their income in less than 6 months and then they don’t know what to say. Sal, thanks for the video. Longtime shooter but I always pick up a few tips from you.

maybe Manual, maybe TTL,,, You should try both and see what works better for You :) :) :)

start at 5 and adjust.

You're the best! :)

lol

Yeah. Ok.
