As people's aesthetics gradually begin to tend to nostalgia, and the clothing industry is also becoming more and more retro jewelry and clothes. In the imaging industry, in addition to the more film-oriented and retro-textured Polaroid , film machine, Fuji camera , etc. The editor recently discovered that Shenzhen Godox Photography Equipment Co., Ltd. has launched a color version of the Lux Senior retro flash, which has attracted the attention of many camera enthusiasts.
According to reports, the Lux Senior retro flash is a camera companion full of nostalgia. It uses a foldable metal reflective fan and retractable hidden light tube. The structure is compact and lightweight, which is easy for users to carry around, allowing you to miss every snapshot moment.

In order to understand clearly, is this retro flash really as magical as the official said. The editor has checked many photos taken by photography bloggers and their notes and found that the photos taken with the Lux Senior retro flash light are indeed very retro and have a sense of age. At the same time, the editor also found that the connected cameras and different parameters, the photos taken are very different. To this end, the editor summarizes several issues that newbies may encounter or face when using the Lux Senior retro flash.
First of all, is it about Lux Senior retro flash connecting to a digital camera? Or is a film camera better? The editor recommends that novices connect to the digital camera first, because they are too familiar with the adjustment of the parameters of the lamp when they are just exposed, which can easily lead to excessive exposure of the photos taken. If the film machine is connected, it is not only a waste of film, but also difficult to adjust the parameters of the next photo through the imaging of the photo.
Secondly, what brand of camera should the Lux Senior retro flash be connected to? The answer is that cameras such as Canon , Sony , Nikon , Fuji, etc. are all OK. If you have to choose one here, the editor recommends choosing a Fuji camera, because in terms of retro, Fuji camera itself has certain advantages. With the lighting of the Lux Senior flash, the photos taken will naturally look better. Of course, as long as the parameters of other brands are adjusted, they can still produce blockbusters.
Finally, note before using the Lux Senior retro flash: the light head will be turned on before it pops up, and the indicator light will be red. Be sure to meter the light before using it. A photography blogger said that although there is automatic metering, it is inaccurate. It is still recommended that you perform manual metering based on the light at the shooting site.
care friends should have discovered that in recent years, major variety shows, image aesthetics and public aesthetics have begun to tend to be retro and nostalgic. From time to time on the street, there are also more nostalgic snack shops, nostalgic exhibitions, retro streets, etc. This shows that trends are a circle, and it also shows that a group of people begin to miss the past youth, the prosperity and beauty of the past. If you think about it carefully, it is probably because of the epidemic in recent years that people can no longer travel, go shopping, and have dinner as freely as before.
Therefore, in this era of very advanced digital product technology, people are pursuing photos with blurry and grainy picture quality. Because the atmosphere created by such photos brings people back to the era of prosperity and fireworks coexisting in the past.
Good hope, wake up on the morning of January 1, 2023, the news broadcast is broadcasting, starting today, the new coronavirus has been eliminated, and masks are no longer mandatory in public places. And I finally saw clearly the faces of strangers who took the bus to work with me every day.
The last, do you think the retro flash priced at 799 yuan is expensive? Is it necessary to buy it?
I wish you a life as beautiful as the photos you took. That’s all for today’s sharing! See you next time.
