Anybody have any ideas re the pros and cons of reflectors versus diffusers? Yes. You are analyzing them to death. There is no difference if both create a light source of the same size relative to the subject. That presupposes you are talking about their use as a primary light. For other uses they vary...diffusers can be used as scrims...reflectors as kickers...etc. -- dadiOH ____________________________ dadiOH's dandies v3.05... ....a help file of info about MP3s, recording from LP/cassette and tips & tricks on this and that.

You can't really blame UC for saying what he did. The original poster had unfortunately turned himself inside out analyzing a 'problem' that was complete ********. He needed putting out of his misery - and UC volunteered. Now hopefully he will snap out of it, buy himself one of the excellent portrait kits available, and start shooting. |
