I’m new to the Real Estate photography, just wondering how much can this industry make per week? An average ?

Is there an average amount of how much to raise your shutter from the ambient to the flash shot?

Hi Rich Thanks so much for these great informative videos. I am new to the industry and really interested in this style of shooting. I am wondering for the ambient photograph, do you shoot aeb bracketed shots and then merge them as an HDR image or do you only shoot one ambient shot? Thanks in advance

Thanks! I’ve been watching a lot of these but yours is the clearest and most simple. I appreciate it!

Excellent DIY ideas with the pole and additional support at the top. I will try these out with some shots at the beach I plan to do. Quick note. You can actually attach two (or more) of the poles together. All that's needed is to take the screws out at the top of a second pole (there are 2 of them now). Then insert this metal pole into the bottom (fiberglass section) of the slightly extended first pole (three notches). Then measure and mark two holes to be drilled through the fiberglass section. These holes will match the location of the holes already on the metal pole. Drill all the way through both the fiberglass pole and the metal pole. Put two bolts/nuts through your new holes and you now have a pole almost double the height of the 16ft pole plus it will shift back down to about 10ft in length. Easier to show than explain. Not quite as stable at the 16 ft by itself, but still good.

Oh my goodness I am so thankful Nathan cool mentioned your name. Between the two of y’all is an absolutely amazing masterclass!

After watching this video I picked up this camera a lens for a really good price, I wanted to get the best bang for the buck since I'm not a pro and good photographers are hard to find in rural areas, My inside pictures are amazing but the outside photos are lacking detail, should I use a different lens for outside or different camera settings?

10 minutes of whining about a RRS clamp. Why didn't he just get BH-55 and be done with it?

You were so excited about the 360 light, you never mentioned the brand or where we could get one. LOL

Hi Rich, thanks for this review. What kind of plate adaptor you use with the manfrotto 405 to use Arca swiss L Braket ?

Your missing the whole point!! Turning it the way you did you cannot then use the tilt feature for your depth of field .. that’s the whole point .. Your way eliminates that

On a D750, in portrait orientation, achieved in the way you illustrate, do you have any problem revolving the shift lock release knob to make it sufficiently finger tight (without over-tightening) to prevent the shift function falling or creeping downwards?

Beautiful work

Hey Rich! Great video and very informative. I do have a quick question. It’s hard to see, but how do you have the X Pro connected to the camera? I see you have a camera ranger (which I’ll look into), but not sure if the X Pro is connected to it? Thanks!

I use this lens all the time. It produces very sharp images all the time. But, I stop down to f14-18 when I shift. If you are doing this wide open at f4 then, of course, you are going to get poor sharpness in the far reaches.

13:32 HOLY FUCK! You recommended the Benro to others without trying it? You just lost 100% credibility for any gear review.

$110 clamp for a $200 tripod head? I think you are missing the target group for the Benro geared head. But hey, you use $1000 heads so I don't blame you for your ignorance.

Nice work Rich

Nice 👌 Brush on Auto Mask? What is the image type you use for Luminar? 16 bit tiff in AdobeRGB?

Hi, thanks to your video, I'm just about to buy either a Bogen 340 or 346 from ebay, I have to have eBay send it to Jetbox in Miami and then Jetbox send it to me in Bogotá Colombia, so double transport cost. Hopping you can quickly compare theese two for me , obviously one is bigger than the other and they are very similar. But I have never had either in my hands. Thanks and Merry Xmas. 🎉

What aperture are you using?

Comment on an old video. I bought a D4 head a couple of years ago and really disliked the OEM clamp set up. I found your video and finally I ordered the RRS clamp and changed it myself. Fantastic! I am so glad you made the video. I now love my D4. Not only the bubble level but the ease of operation is excellent!

Hi Rich, I'm must have missed something in your presentation. If you exposed for the brightest area in your ambient image, why is the window, presumably the brightest, blown out? It looks like a darker area was metered.. Thanks for your time.

On the X2T (Sony) modeling lights can be turned on / off by long pressing the Menu button on the controller. Thank You Rich Baum :)

Great tutorial very well explained.

Title should really include the word "with flash photography" - it's not just using darken mode as it implies :(

Hi Rich, why not change the ambient layer to luminosity mode?

Good photo demonstration. The dark grout of the white tiles is very unattractive. I would be concerned sellers did that because it was dirty, gross.

Love this tutorial Rich. Well done. I love the pace of your tutorials. Keep up the great work.

Good video. I forgot you can use normal mode when blending ambient. So used to using lumonosity mode.

I have a Manfrotto XPro gear head and this Benro. I agree with your views on the Benmo. I do like it, I don’t actually know which know which one I prefer.

Hello Rich After watching your video I really wanted a Bogen Tripod. I live in Switzerland, we have a website that does the same as Ebay but only for Switzerland. To my great surprise I found a Bogen Tripod on the website with the original Tripodhead and original manual, where also the price from back then is written on it (125$). I paid 90$ for the tripod. In the last few days I was able to test the tripod with my Eos 5DSR. It is exactly as you said: The Tripod stands absolutely still and I am now also fan of the Tripodhead. Thanks for the tip!

This might be a dumb question but what do you do if your photo shoot can only be done in the evenings with little or no ambient light?

Hello Rich! I'm really getting a lot out of your channel. I have one question. I copied your pole end cap and I like your idea of going to 5/16 instead of 1/4 thread. Did you have to drill and tap the tripod head? Pretty much any I find are quarter twenty (like the cameras). Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us!

And where examples ???? Video bulshit

thanks a lot!

I don't know what Arca-Swiss were doing six years ago, but if you buy this head today the center screw will be secured in place with a threadlocker and can be easily removed. You just need to be really firm with the hex key and it'll come straight out.

Does this eliminate the hdr bracket shots?

Thanks for the good review and insight on how the camranger works

Can I save the 3D Project on the computer and then upload it to my own website and avoid paying subscriptions? Because I am thinking of starting a new business, but I do not guarantee its success, and I do not want to pay subscriptions to the site and to 3D

As usual this is also a lovely video on RE Photography. Thanks a lot Rich for making such videos to enlighten us. Love from India.

Thanks for sharing. Curious if it impacts the blinds too or just pulling the view from the window

Great video Rich

Thank you for the great review. It appears that the G4 does not allow for a very drastic tilt to allow for shooting more straight upwards at tall buildings, for example when standing nearly beneath them. Am I assuming that correctly? I have the BH-55 currently and love it for my landscape work, but would like a geared head for fine art architecture. Many times I am making compositions that have my camera pointing nearly straight up… the BH-55 allows for that, but with the caveat of not being geared. Perhaps RRS will release a geared version one day. I'd be all over the G4 if it had a better range of motion, and it appears that it lacks in that regard. Thank you for any additional insight you can provide. Cheers!

Hey, Rich. Been a while since we talked. I know this video is 2 years old, but hopefully you still get the comments from older videos. I shot a house yesterday with blonde wooden paneling on the walls. Out of camera, they looked very orange. I wasn't worried, because I thought I could fix them in post by pulling out the orange and a little yellow. But I wasn't really happy with the result. Any ideas? Thanks. Jim Ruse

Thanks Rich. You don't needlessly overcomplicate 😊

Thank you so much Rich!

Have you ever compared it with FTP file transfers that are in the internal camera?

Thank you for this video Rich. Although drones have taken over my pole photography for most parts lately, I wanted to come back to this video because of the 0ft authorization areas near an airport. You are one of the greatest teachers of real estate photography and I've learned a lot from you. Greetings from Oakland.
