HALCO SLIDOG 150 COLLECTION
For nearly a year I’ve been shooting the whole Halco lure range, many thousnads of images later we’re getting close to finishing. From the beginning I wanted to get perfection, every hook, splitring, wire and angle to be exactly the same across all models and sizes. that involved building alot of jigs and measuring angles/distances, jotting them down in my notebook for later reference for every model as there will be new colors added in the future.
After nearly two years using the compact Godox Ad300 Pro’s , I’ve got nothing but praise for these lights. Being so light and compact makes them easy to quickly adjust angles when mounted onto a good C-Stand. Larger lights like my AD600 Pro’s are quite cumbersome, great when I need big light and lots of power but you aren’t using or needing it all the time there’s no need, for small items even with the AD300’s I’m only using ¼ power.
Color temperature is very good, generally around 5300K, which when I do some WB test shots with the Passport Color Checker I WB on the 18% grey card registers at 5250K, so it’s close to almost perfect. If you are going to shoot a lot of shots in the same lighting setup set the flash to the Color Stable Mode so the kelvin rating will remain the
