Thank you for a great demonstration. I’ve previously avoided umbrellas in favor of softboxes equipped with eggcrate due to concerns about light spill but this video really helped explain the benefits of umbrellas and differences between the two tools.

Largest light I know is the sun, wouldn’t exactly call it a soft light though. Still very interesting topic and I shall certainly try to put what I’ve learned to good use in the future. Thanks Jean-Francois O’Kane
