[QUOTE="niki, post: 212490, member: 31070"] Hey Bret, what camera and lenses you have? For interior you need fast lenses rather than light arreys. I suggest you go for apperture like 1.2 or 1.4, this will definitelly help and improove the quality and the look. The drawback is you'll get too shalow DOF and thus will obviously limit you in two ways. First you will not be able to have the whole room in focus and that will open more work of designing a shot like doing focus racking in the shots so to reveal the closest and the farthest features of the room while camera is on a slider or panning. Second is when you start moving the camera lets say on doly or handheld/stedicam you'll need assistant the pull the focus, for this you'll need additional equipment as well. Second case can be executed by fixed focus, there are some youtubers showing examples of that but you should be very creative in the shot designing as this aquires to start and end the shot from some features that you should nail to be at the same diatance from the camera. Another issue on indoor shooting are the windows, when you adjust the propper exposure and the windows are behind or on the side of the camera without initially been seen in the frame, when you pan accross them you'll get overexposure. For those situations you may switch to autoexposure in more proffesional and expensive way the dop's are coveringthe windows with ND filters to ballance the exposure, but this is done usually with combination of a few lights. And finally I suggest you rather rent some lights equipment than buying them, this way you'll be able to get more powerful lights without trashing your budget. And not thinking about where and how to store them. [/QUOTE]
