Continuing on from the previous off-camera flash tutorial video, we explore balancing ambient light with off-camera flash. With this video tutorial, we use a speedlight in a softbox, and we look at using TTL flash. There is a certain simplicity when we work with TTL flash in a non-static situation - we allow the technology to help us get to proper flash exposure quickly. More about this in the article on Manual flash vs TTL flash.
This video tutorial is one in a series that originally appeared on the Clickin’ Moms website in 2012, but licensing has now reverted back to me, and here we are - a tutorial that might be dated in terms of some of the gear used, but the principles remain the same. In conjunction with all the other articles about off-camera flash photography, these videos should make a good primer on the topic of off-camera flash.

Absolutely love these practical tutorials. Question...is there any reason for putting the softbox so far away from the subject? my understanding is/was that if closer, you get a softer light? Thanks again!

Hi there Fabrizio -- you are entirely correct. Here the distance between the model and the softbox had more to do with giving a nice line of sight to the video camera while we were shooting.

Oi Neil... tudo bom? considero você um grande fotógrafo e tenho aprendido muito contigo... te sigo no Instagram, visito sempre seu site e tenho um livro seu ainda, mas vou comprar outros, só esperando que traduzam eles aqui no Brasil... seus videos são muito instrutivos e práticos, eu leio o livro e assisto os videos praticando tudo que aprendo. Deus te abençoe muito por compartilhar tanto conhecimento conosco.

On that last couple of shots there seemed to be a glare in the window how did you accomplish getting it out of your shot?

@neilvn 3 года назад

Angle of incidence vs angle of reflection. I just make sure I can't see the softbox in the window reflection.

nice tuto. why 400 and 800 iso instead of 100, which makes background more present ? for foreigners, it is difficult to follow numbers in english. It would be great if you could add them in notes or on images.

The higher ISO settings is to enable a hand-holdable shutter speed with the longer lens. I try to work at maximum flash sync speed when working outdoors.

1. Aim your softbox towards her face, not on the top of her head. Lots o light just spills you you do it your way. 2. Place softbox MUCH closer to her to make your harsh shadows softer. 3. Pick less bright backgrounds, now it doesn't have any sense.
