8 After the trigger cord is properly connected, check the synchronization with a film camera. Adjust the lighting unit to same height as the camera lens and face the lights into the lens. The lens aperture should be open to its fullest extent and set on “X” or “zero” delay. Remove the camera back. It is best to perform this test with the mo ...

10 Color Temperature Consistent and Constant The problem: With the rare exception of units costing many thousands of dollars, flash lighting packs, up to now, do not control the color temperature of the light. The color temperature typically decreases by over 100 degrees Kelvin for every f-stop of power reduction. Over a 6-stop adjustment range, th ...

11 power point is commonly used in engineering and serves the purpose of reporting the bandwidth of the flash duration, but the graph below clearly shows that a power point measurement does not truly report the total flash duration. The clock doesn’t start running until the flash discharge reaches 50% of its peak, and stops when it falls below 50 ...

12 Reciprocity Explained -Excerpts taken from Kodak TECHNICAL PUBLICATION DATA I FILM E31- July 2002 The reciprocity law states that the intensity of light falling on a photographic film multiplied by the exposure time equals the total amount of exposure. Intensity x Time = Exposure This means, for example, that an exposure of f 16 at 1/60 second i ...

13 LONG-EXPOSURE EFFECTS Under low-light conditions, you may have to extend your exposure times to a point of significant speed loss. With black-and-white films, the effect of this speed loss is partially offset by wide exposure latitude. Most color films require more than the normally calculated exposure when the lighting is unusually low. Also, t ...
