Workshop 2 – Studio Week 4 research questions


 In a given situation you are using a Pulso 2 flash pack with a single head and P70 reflector attached.  The subject is 2m from the head and the unit is set to a power setting of 10 and a flash meter indicates correct exposure will be achieved by using f64.  Your maximum lens aperture is f2.

Given:

Unit:                Pulso 2
Heads:             1
Reflector:         P70
Subject d:         2m
Power:             10
f-number:        f64

Answer the following questions.

1.         The Guide Aperture (GA) of this unit is;

            [a]        64
            [b]        45
            [c]        32
            [d]        22
            [e]        16

2.         Moving the subject to a new distance of 4m would require the use of;

            [a]        f64
            [b]        f45
            [c]        f32
            [d]        f22
            [e]        f16

3.         Moving the subject to a new distance of 8m would require the use of;

            [a]        f64
            [b]        f45
            [c]        f32
            [d]        f22
            [e]        f16

4.         In the given situation above, what f-number would you use to achieve correct exposure if the subject was moved to 64m?
f2
  
In a given situation you are using a Pulso 2 flash pack with a single head and P70 reflector attached.  The subject is 64m from the head and the unit is set to a power setting of 10 and a flash meter indicates correct exposure will be achieved by using f2 for a single flash discharge. Your maximum lens aperture is f2.

Given:

Unit:                Pulso 2
Heads:             1
Reflector:         P70
Subject d:         64m
Power:             10
Flash number:  1
f-number:        f2

5.         Complete the table below to maintain correct exposure for each new power setting.

Pulso 2 Flash Power setting
Number of flashes
Required to maintain correct exposure.
10
1
9
2
8
4
7
8
6
16

Let’s make this challenging, J

6.         Assuming you have just correctly exposed your subject in the previous question with power setting of 6; how many flash discharges would you need to correctly expose the subject if it was now moved to 128m.

            Answer:           64 flashes  (phew) -  I reckon!
