    I will usually bump up the aperture, so I was shooting around 1/500th 4.5 ISO 3200. I usually shoot handheld at 1/640th 2.8 ISO 2000. The shutter could go down on the remote since it was a wider shot, and because the camera is prefocused I needed to stop down to get a larger sweet spot.

    the backboard remote is popular as well, but if you do not use strobes the loss of light shooting through the glass makes it difficultTheres not much to fear regarding floor cam, you just have to be prepared to bail out and pull your camif you used strobes, you would put all cameras including your handheld, to be remotes, and use a trigger to simultaneously fire them all, with one of them relaying an impulse to the light set. its not difficult but it is complicated. email me for more info

    Thanks for sharing!So, a couple of questions. I’ve seen other photographers setting up their remotes via bracket on the goal (down towards the bottom). This seems better to me as I would be afraid someone will squash my equipment sitting on the floor. Also, how would you set this up if you are remotely firing strobes in the ceiling?

    Hey, just thought I’d comment that right now, for whatever reason, the regular version of the video is not working. Hit HQ to view the video.
