Next step: Fill the shadows!
I used the Westcott Eyelighter 2 and angled the FJ200 slightly downward so the light would reflect off the Eyelighter and fill in shadows under my subjects’ eyes and chins.
Want a little extra pop?
I used the FJ80 as a hair light camera left to create separation between my subjects and the background, and to give the look of the final image a little something extra.
The FJ-X2m universal trigger with a wireless communication range of up to 985 feet and the ability to have up to 6 groups and 32 wireless channels, I was able to control both the FJ200 and FJ80 seamlessly from the touch screen without having to run back and forth to adjust settings on the strobes.
Once your lights are set in place and turned on, it’s time to take a test shot! I started the power on both lights at power 2 to start. I started at ISO 400, f/5.6, and 1/200th shutter speed.
