Preguntas Frecuentes
What is rim lighting?
Light outlining subject edges, creating separation from background and adding dimensionality.
How do I expose with backlighting?
Use spot metering on subject face, not background. Backlight may require -1 to -2 EV adjustment.
Can I use backlighting outdoors?
Yes, position subject between you and sun. Use fill flash or reflector to prevent subject underexposure.
Does backlighting work for all subjects?
Best for subjects with hair or texture. Less dramatic on solid-colored objects without edge detail.
What is the difference between backlight and rim light?
Backlight is the light source; rim light is the effect on subject edges. Backlight creates rim light.
