Man, I love this channel and all the cool and incredible tips and tricks! Andrew you are the best! Flash Photography is still something I have to master but thanks to this channel I can learn more and more about that!
Yoooooo!! thank you so much for dropping by and leaving me a comment. Indeed! Flash is so important in photography. Stay tuned and subscribe, you will have more of such videos coming your way soon - Andrew Boey😍
@SlayerzXtreme - thank you for leaving me and my team a comment. Glad you enjoy the tip, and i agree, Flash makes a world of difference for photographers. Love always, Andrew
nice channel, Andrew has clever tips. but in this case, I don't understand why he does not simply set the TTL to -1 instead of tricking the exposure to +1. If you have high contrast backgrounds and spotlights (immagine having the sun behind the subject), his method won't work properly...
Another way is to meter the background for proper exposure, which means negative exposure when there’s bright light, then use negative flash exposure compensation on the flash.
@mazar4225 - hiiiii. Andrew here. the reason i went with a slightly more positive exposure on the camera is simple: this will brighten the background. Tuning the flash to -1 will only reduce the brightness of the flash and will not brighten the background. and truly, thanks for leaving us a comment. Love and thanks, Andrew
This video makes no sense. Set ISO to 400 and then set to auto. Then over expose on meter. I wish he would relax and explain his wisdom. Not this hysterical nonsense.
thanks andrew ,for your video and we want to ask which good picture control can you use in outdoor and how to set well according to the condition you are in mainly for ministers , leaders
I know this is a bit late but, there’s a settings where you can min max your iso. Maybe he is telling us he set his maximum iso to 400 so when in auto iso maximum it will dial the iso is only 400 and minimum is whatever he set it. So depending on his aperture and shutter speed camera will compensate between example 100-400 ISO for exposure.
Thanks for all of the videos you make!! One question..You are in manual mode and you choose f 1.2, 400 iso and TTL mode on flash and then you play only with shutter speed?Not auto iso but 400, did i get i wright?
Andrew, you said, put your ISO at 400 and then put it on AUTO ISO................ what happens if my ISO is 3200 and then I put it on AUTO? I dont get this part? why 400 and then AUTO? whats the difference if I dont choose 400 and then auto? thank you
Hi sir. sorry for my late reply. This was the trick i used to make the ISO Auto and still have a base for it to work from: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-OTTGI6ZEsZM.html
@@normameyers4904 Yes!! just follow the link to his response from 8 months ago! =D do it! it is a matter to understand it and going out and trying it thanks Andrew!!
Nice tip Andrew, thanks! I thought you were going to recommend angling the flash head upwards and use the built in bounce card. This works better. Cheers from a long time subscriber..
Hey Sir Andrew, I'm a new subscriber thank you for a simple explanation of your tutorial.. But I have a question, in TTL mode when is the right time to use the flash exposure compensation? and what is the difference of camera exp compensation to flash exp compensation? I hope I'm making sense.. btw, in this video what is your white balance?
TTL is B. S. Just go on manual mode don't go on Automatic ISO... Fillflash should be one-stop... Dial one stop down... Try right flash manually and forget every automatic... Even with Godox, it can happen that Godox changes the aperture...
Indeed! you can do that and to be honest if that works for you, sweet spot then! TTL is easier to teach and master. Your technique is a master yoda level technique only seasoned veterans can do well with. CHeers and thanks for watching and sharing your input
Thank you so much for this valuable information. I was worried cause this Sunday I have an outdoor shoot and I don't want to use off-camera flash with all the setup. ill surely try and apply your methods. Thanks once again. May God bless you.
Great lesson, Andrew! I've missed these videos I'm glad to see them coming back. I've known you've been busy. I follow you on Instagram and Facebook, so I get to see all your other projects you do outside of photography.
Interesting idea 👍. I personally love time lapse photography. Let's hope Andrew make a video on this sooon 😊. In the meantime do stay tuned for more videos. - Rin Othmani, Channel Admin -
Even better to: if you think flash exposure is right, go 50% or at least 2/3 steps down with flash power. Then increase shutter time to get right exposure.
I like how the video looks completely perfect. What monster of a camera is the videographer using? In this video, the photo camera's flash is being used like a shadow filler, and I think that's a good way to use head-on flash, but using head-on flash at a distance in the dark can sometimes work too because distance will naturally diffuse the light.
Hi there, I always enjoy your videos. My night photography leaves something to be desired. Maybe you could do a few night vision videos? Thanks Andrew.
What is your background is very bright? Backlighting the subject and exposing for the background? Do you still go positive? It can be as the photos will be overexposed on the background then?
Thanks for the tip, Andrew. I recently photographed a family baptism party, and I was most impressed with the results when bouncing the flash off the walls and ceiling. If you are outside, what do you think about putting a small diffuser on the direct flash too? You know, one of those small rectangular things you strap on. Would it make much difference do you think? P:S:; I have already subscribed!
That helps but it doesn't really soften the light. It diffuses the light a little so your highlights are not as harsh on your subject. Diffusion and softness are not necessarily the same thing.
Your videos are simply fabulous...sir i have a problem regarding flash photography...am not able to set proper white balance while using flash in indoors and outdoors...many photographers say shoot in raw we can edit in post processing, but i don't want to depend on post processing...please help me how to get proper white balance while using flash
I learn a lot from these videos, thanks !!! But...most of the time, the type of photography I do indoors and outdoors, does not allow for much setup, family pictures mostly, adults and kids, most of the time I can only point and shoot...that is why I use a Fuji X100T with its built in flash, just point and shoot, perfect photos almos 100% of the time using the flash !!! My DSLR's do the same, but, need to be set up, no time for that with my family !!! Thanks for your useful videos !!! I did subscribe !!!

Great lesson!!! I been trying to capture moving car or bike, however i'm always can't get proper focus and exposure. Can you guide me how to properly capture moving subject? Thanks
How to avoid back shadow on wall and if I position my flash on ceiling how to avoid high light on the upper part of the body and low light on the down part of the body
