Hello, last week i got lots of new kit which i'm thrilled about a pair of Interfit EXD200 flashes and the Lastolite Hilite background with the train.
I have 2 problems; firstly, i get a nice high key shot but there is a very obvious join where the background (which is lit from within) is white & the vinyl train appears grey.
If i alter levels to make the train grey then the rest is over exposed. - does anyone know how to avoid this a) when i take the shot and b) now i have a whole shoot of them, how to fix it in Elements? - i guess that could be a different section of the forum, but i'd rather solve it in camera.
Secondly, the shoot i did was on wednesday & i still havent managed to fold the hilite up again, took me 45 mins at a friends/clients house to get it in the car but its still not back in the bag, its like a wild beast. I have folded it up twice, but this time its taking days......Any words of wisdom!?
Thanks folks
