John Baikie's Remote Desktop - part 2 of 1 2

by John Baikie Published 02/02/2015

Summary
A summary of the first shoot with the Omega. It is easy to use, lightweight and a great size for both close-up and full-length shots (38"x45"). It is very easy to change from one set-up to another, although personally I see myself using just silver/sunlight sides with and without centre panels. I tend to only really use a silver reflector, but I love thesubtle gold effect of the sunlight, compared to many genuine gold reflectors, which I always find too warm. It's not easy to use fixed to a stand, but that's the same with any reflector in my opinion, and I will definitely use an assistant on future shoots with it. It performed brilliantly in the conditions I used it, and I am pretty certain those were as tricky as I am likely to face. I look forward to testing it properly in actual sunlight. If it can perform that well on a dull day I am sure it will be an essential addition to my kit bag. It is good value for money coming in at $100 and I will definitely be using this a lot in the future. It is likely to become an important asset on my wedding and portrait shoots.
