I think this was said somewhat tongue in cheek, but you can see how harsh the light is in real life if you go to the 10:30 mark on the video - look at the hardness of the shadow around her nose, even with the light only a couple feet from it.
The images Lanier added to the video are heavily retouched, with skin softening applied. The ambient light he was shooting in was from an overcast day, which is a huge softbox - and with no way of dialing down the ambient light without also affecting the rotolight output, almost all of the light hitting the "models" is ambient.
Purely in terms of photography (I'm sure they're ok people), I have about as much respect for Lanier as I do the Northrups, which isn't much. Saw Lanier kind of just awkwardly floating around WPPI last month. Guessing he was leading some photowalks around the event, but from what I understand Sony dropped him as an ambassador....Show more →
Cant argue with your evaluation. It was the perfect setup to show them during "daylight" but yeah, even the photo on the packaging of the Neo 2 is harsh.
