Beauty Dish
Nov 8, 2014 15:07:56 #
Finally got around to buying a 22" beauty dish. My good friend Keith was the first victim (he was only over to do some plumbing work for me and he's not exactly a beauty!). I'm really pleased with the result. I've also just bought a third head (Bowens 500R) on ebay for delivery next week. This is getting serious now!

For females you will need a diffuser, otherwise the image will not be flattering.

I have the diffuser and also a grid. I will be trying different combinations to figure out what works best for different situations. Thanks for the tip :thumbup:

I thought that was very funny. Such a sense of humor.

So they call them Beauty Dishes now, do they??? There were no 'Glamorous' names like that, when I got mine in the early 1960's.

I don't even remember seeing one in the 60s, but then I never worked in a fashion studio :)

That's a very good portrait actually - not easy to do with someone wearing spectacles.

I used to refer to mine rather irreverently as 'The Dustbin Lid' That was when we had metal dustbins, and the lids were about the same size.

I hope that nickname didn't 'reflect' the quality of the light you got from it? :D :D :D
