4 Tips and troubleshooting
Picture tips
The quality of the shot greatly depends
upon correct lighting. This section details
how you can improve your studio lighting
set-up. The 4 light sources discussed are
as follows:
Main lighting
(25) : Soft light source using
a flash with an umbrella, soft box or other
reflector. Preferably at an angle of 45º to
the axis of shooting and at a distance of
2m from the subject.
Fill-in lighting
(26) : Weaker and more dif-
fused light than the main light source.
Positioned opposite the main light source
to soften harsh facial shadows according
to setting, light intensity and/or distance.
Background lighting
(27) : Positioned close
to the floor behind the subject to eliminate
the shadows cast by the person onto the
background.
Overhead lighting
(28) : Gives depth to the
photograph. Produces subtle lighting
effects on hair and shoulders. This source
of lighting should be positioned between
70cm and 1m above the head. (Please
ensure that it is not reflected in the lens.)
Example of a professional lighting set-up
(29) : Use all 4 light sources described
above to achieve optimum results:
a Main lighting
b Fill-in lighting
c Background lighting
d Overhead lighting (if necessary with honey-
combed diffusing screen)
Example of a simplified lighting set-up
(30) :
If space is restricted we recommend the
following solution:
a Main lighting
b Secondary lighting comprising a white
reflective screen
c Combined background lighting and, if nec-
essary, overhead lighting
Head size overlays
Use the head size overlays supplied to
accurately frame your subject and ensure
that your photographs meet your intended
document’s specifications.
a
Tear off the overlay applicable to your
country.
b Place the overlay on the camera preview
screen ensuring the top and bottom tabs
slip between the moulding and screen
(31)
holding the overlay in place.
c Adjust the camera position and zoom to fit
the subjects head within the oval printed
on the overlay.
