What is the power of the lights ? Can I get pure white background with 4x 30W lights and a cube 75x75x75 ?

And the second question: Should I get 4x30W lights or 2x75W lights. Both with a cube !

Waiting answer,

Cristian Ioan

@faithnomore1234 Its not really the power that gets you a white background its how you light it and the exposure more power means shorter exposure.

Hi! Thank you so much for this videos! When you have some time, may you make a video showing the differences between softboxes, beautydishes and umbrella lighting? Or there are no difference? Thanks again, I wish you the best!

@smickphoto I just pick 4x75W kit light studio but now I have another problem. I put 3 of the lights of the subject and one on the background but on the post edit I can't get pure white background without overexposing the subject.

How can I make it right ?

Thanks,

Cristian I.
