We will demonstrate how to use the Wing Light for low & high ceilings, as well as compare light quality to a popular ceiling bounce diffuser. Future videos will demonstrate how to use light output adjustments on the Wing Light for key & fill lighting in a standard 3 point lighting setup.

  • I was reading Isaac Newtons optiks the other day, the physics behind the behavior of light. Light travels in straight, direct line patterns unless reflected upon a shiny surface. For the most part, light is completely absorbed by mass. The ceiling you used does not in any way reflect the light back to your target, if anything it scatters it. At best all you are doing is using a high quality camera with dim light.

  • @DoctorYoon Hey Dr. Yoon, everything we see with our eyes is a product of light bouncing off of surfaces. Our cameras work the same way, it basically just absorbs light & translates it into data. Although the video does look orange from the incandescent lighting, the ceilings & walls are indeed white. We also demonstrated that dim external light sources does not affect the outcome of our photos based on our current settings. Ceiling bounces have been around for nearly 100 years, it should work.

  • @DoctorYoon when you use a speedlite straight on the model it will cast harsh light and deep shadows, because of the one beam of light. However when you point that light to the celling, it becomes a large soft box that illuminates the whole room. The small beam of light is now a large mass of light, it helps create softer light and I wouldn't call it dim... Speedlites are very powerful. Why don't you try it out for yourself? It's a technique photographers use, and guess what? It works!
