🧪 Setup Examples for Different Use Cases
🌞 Natural Light Portraits
Morning shoots with the sun coming in from the east-facing windows give you soft, flattering shadows. Add a diffuser if you’re shooting midday.
🛒 Product Photography
Use the white table near the window. Combine it with a softbox to avoid harsh shadows. Perfect for small items or flat lays.
🎤 Live Streaming
Set up your camera facing the longer wall with a neutral backdrop. Connect to Crit Lab’s high-speed Wi-Fi and stream without drops.
