I am a big fan of Japanese culture. The Oni Mask is a powerful symbol of Japan’s rich culture and history.
The Oni Mask is the main inspiration for a future Samurai-themed photoshoot. I will borrow a katana from a sword collector. I still need to find a Kimono. It seems that it will take a while until I manage to gather all the required props.
Until then, I have tested my new camera and lights and taken these portraits.
I used Sony A7III R, with Sony 70-200mm F4.0 lens, 2 Godox AD200 Pocket Flash and Godox TTL XPRO-S. I used Adobe Lightroom to edit the colours and Adobe Photoshop for the second portrait.

Great sharp photos. Super. I hear a lot of people love the Sony for their video productions too.
Thank you!
I have a lot to learn before I can use this camera to its full potential. I will use it as a secondary camera, too, for the short film that I wish to shoot. I saw many videos on YouTube made by people who use it for video productions, the results were incredible!
Yes, I know movie makers that love it. Tell any story you with it to get practice with the camera and editing.
This is so cool!
