Continuous Lighting vs Flash Heads
Hi,
Could someone please explain the pros and cons of continuous lighting as opposed to studio flash heads. I have a small home studio in which I have so far used flash heads with a softbox or umbrella; I am reasonably happy with the results. I use a light meter to get the correct exposure, and an elinchrom trigger system to fire the flashes.
However, I have been reading about continuous lighting and wondered if there was any benefit from using it instead of the flash system outlined above. What are the pros and cons of continuous lighting?
I would be most grateful for any advice or recommendations as I am still relatively new to studio portrait work and am keen to learn more.
Thank you in advance.
Tom
