How to use

Position the Pico Midnight Blue close to your subject to provide soft, even illumination; attach the light to an on-camera cold shoe or a small ball-head stand for stable placement. Adjust distance and angle to control shadow softness and highlight placement. For tabletop setups, place the unit slightly off-axis to the subject to achieve dimensional lighting and reduce direct reflections. Use your camera’s white balance controls or a grey card to match the light’s color when mixing with other sources.

Usage recommendations

For best results, combine the Pico Midnight Blue with diffusion or bounce techniques when shooting faces or reflective objects to minimize harsh shadows. When powering from batteries or external power sources, verify runtime and have spare power available for extended sessions.
