LEDGO leds vs Elinchrom

When you read the title you will actually probably think I’m comparing LEDs to Strobes….. sorry to disappoint you, it’s not that kind of post 😀

 

Last weekend we got our new LEDGO panels which we will be using for our videos and videowebpodcasts, when I saw them coming in during the workshop “creativity and styling” I thought it would be awesome to create something in which we combine the LEDGO panels with the strobes in the studio. The results I show today, but first I have to add something….

 

I had borrowed some led panels in the past and most of the times I was a bit disappointed with their operation and most of all light output. When the team from KelbyOne filmed here they brought some awesome panels that had a great light output so that triggered us to look at led panels again and after advice and help from our friends at CameraNu.nl we ended up with two amazing panels from LEDGO, and I have to say, this is exactly what we wanted. The panels are dim-able and have a selectable color output range ranging from 32K to 56K and they have a great light output. The shots you see here today were actually all shot with the panels as main light (F8 ISO100 on 1/60) and the Elinchrom strobes were only used to put some color in the scene and add the spot on the brand name (right panel), later I added a striplight to open up the bottom part of the dress just a bit.
