yeah but it also redners his tutorial to be a bit impractical. I'm shooting candids at an event, there are no second chances, so should I be using ttl after all?
@imjonlacey
@imjonlacey Год назад
@@mandysteinback7387 I guess that would depend on how much experience you have, at the events I shoot im taking candid photos and adjusting the light manually depending on room changes and distance the subject is (I love candid shots with a 200mm across the room 👌), shoot and check the image after every couple of shots - also in a 3 hour event im taking 2000+ images and only 200 or so come out great quality, so keep that in mind

I can't tell you how many tutorials I've went through trying to learn the basics of flash (and having to just learn in on the fly by doing it). And always you're left feeling confused and not sure how to use it in practical applications. But this video is so simple and straightforward. It's excellent. Seriously. I've learned more in five minutes than I have done in probably hours and hours of flash videos.

For what ever reason flash seems to be the most mysterious thing you can do with your camera. During lockdown it has been my goal to “master” the speed light. I’m still working on it but it’s been well worth the effort so jump in the water and give it a shot. Omar makes it easy to get started with videos like this!

I find TTL useful, skips the dimming/adjusting part of it. You basically just have to work on your shutter speed according to ambient and let the flash work the distance to the subjects and adjust its power. Most time works well. I live around 800 ISO, F4.0, usually 1/60 is a good shutter to capture the ambient light and still freeze the subject.
@Infragelb
@Infragelb 3 года назад
Thank you very much! This is right up my skill level as an enthusiast, never thought about the ambient vs. subject exposure through the different inputs. I will try a shoot without TTL once there are other people to meet again.

AMAZING VIDEO!!! I tend to do Street Photography, photojournalism, concert, landscape...all other types of photography and have little experience with flash. But based on my shots I normally take, some friends have trusted me (EEEK!!) to photograph their reception. To capture the moments. I've been mentally freaking out about using Flash and have been doing my own experimenting but wow! Your video is insanely helpful! I'm going to practice what you showed ASAP and hope things go great!

Finally, a simple and coherent explanation on how the flash works as a concept. I've always been avoiding flash because I didn't understand the big picture: camera for background exposure and flash compensation for subject. Everything else is built on that. Thank you so much! Teachers like you is the reason I'm good at math. 😂 You can learn rules and formulas all you want - you will be lost until somebody explains the big picture that organizes it all.
