Installing Your FirstStar Lamp Head

9. Loosen the knob on the receiver of the swivel. Figure 11

10. Slide the receiver on to the top of the LiteStand and re-tighten the knob to

secure the FirstStar onto the LiteStand. Figures 12 and 13

11. Loosen the handle with a turn to adjust the tilt of the lamp head, then

tighten when it is in position. Figure 14

12. Screw in the 250 watt lamp. Figure 15

Installing Your Umbrellas

13. Smoothly and slowly open the umbrella as you would open any

umbrella until it clicks into the open position; as rapid opening could

compromise the life expectancy of the product. Figures 16 and 17

Determining Your Umbrellas Distance from the Lamp Head

15. Plug your First Star lamp head into a standard home power outlet and

switch the lamp on using the switch on the power cord. Figure 19

16. The fully illuminated umbrella becomes your light source, which is what

will illuminate your subject. The larger the light source in relation to your

subject, the softer the light. For best results, the lamp head should evenly

illuminate the entire umbrella, which will allow for some light spillage

around the edges of the umbrella. This is achieved when the umbrella

shaft has about 4 inches showing on the side of the swivel closest to the

subject you are photographing (Figure 20). If you want a little harsher light

to the umbrella. Figure 21
