Behind the scenes

The photographer only uses one AD400pro to fill up the front of the person, and adjust the lighting position according to the angle of sun rays and actual shadow conditions of the person.

At the same time, the strong power of AD400Pro enables to make sure a certain distance between flash and character, so that photographers can avoid shadows better and have more flexbility into every creation of the shooting.
