Welcome to the world of Frank Doorhof.

"This camera is unusable for studio use, that's insane for such an expensive camera.... etc" Countless of these kind of bashing cameras can be found online, especially when the EVF in a camera was not as widely used as now. So what's going on here. In the older cameras we used the sensor only as a replacement for film. The image was still split to a part where you see the image, focus is done etc. and a part where it's hitting the sensor. With the mirrorless cameras everything changed. First of all we could get super accurate focus (well not at first, it was terrible at times) because you literally focus on the sensor, but we could now also use the viewfinder in a completely new way.

Often when I mention sets people think about big budget solutions, but the opposite can be true, and mostly is in my work. For me it's almost a sport to create cool looking sets without breaking the bank. So we also look for cool stuff on fleamarkets, attics etc. you would be surprised what kind of "junk" you can buy for next to nothing that work great in a photoshoot.

And this time we had a very special prop. A Harley Davidson. In two completely different setups I show you how to light the set and pose the model, but also how to light in zones and understanding feathering and light placement for reflections and covering up light sources.
