Hey sorry if this is a basic question, I have been shooting for about 6 months now after seeing some really cool exterior strobe shots (you know, when the background is dark and sky is dark blue but the talent is lit and almost plastic looking).
Anyways, as i said im about to but a strobe monolight as i dont wanna deal with packs yet. Im a cinematographer so I understand light, but am not to sure if a 400watt strobe is the equivelent of 400w of continuous lighting, if so I know thats not gonna do much.
Thanks in advance for your help!
