Which speed light do you prefer round or square ?

I searched for my exact flash and learned that the head can be rotated left and right, no joke thank you for the video!

You welcome

[@grahamrvalladarez4038]

can you do a tutorial if the scene is changing and so are the subjects. For instance in a wedding where the scenes change from the front of the church to near a window, to outside. Also the persons, like the bride with all white dress and then the family members with different color clothes?

Good presentation👍

Thanks, appreicated your feedback. Glad you liked the video

Great video

[@leolaxes]

After you exposed the background and turned on the flash the live view changed. This is something that also happens in my sony and I really cant see how my exposure is working unless I turn off the flash. The live view "simulates" the flash. Is there a way to stop the camera from simulating the flash in the live view?

[@FlorianFrickel]

You need to go into your flash menu settings and set the flash exposure to ambient only then it won’t adjust the picture and estimate how it would look like with flash. It will only show the ambient exposure without flash even if the flash is turned on

Great overview! Easy to follow as an amateur.

Hi I have question I don’t know but my flash is firing approximately 5th times before camera will do a picture, how I can set up my sony6400 that the flash will fire only once or why the flash is firing multiple times before camera gales the picture

[@tylerm7591]

So when things are happening and you need good exposure how do you find this quickly without having to take a lot of test photos?

[@FlorianFrickel]

This comes with practice. As more you shoot with flash as more you get used to it and you know what sort of flash power you need for certain situations or camera settings. It’s all about practice. However you could shoot Manual exposure combined with ttl flash and adjust the ttl manual to get a faster exposure Depending on what level of photography you are and how much experience you got under your belt

[@dewaldwessels1970]

Wouldnt titling the head forward, instead of increasing power, provide better light?

[@FlorianFrickel]

Technically yes you want to try to avoid having harsh lighting but then also no depends on the style of photo you going. If you want the harsh lighting effect. Their isn’t a 100% correct answer all depends on your style of photography and what you try to achieve

Still struggling with speedlight on camera flash, . What to do if room has no white wall for bounce ?? -What if room is large such as church? - what if your ambient light suddenly changes? What to change? camera setting or flash setting? Example couple just walking inside from church to outside..? -When to flash directly to the subject ? As more people you need to go back further and increase flash power. It's create unbalance in color temperature 😢😢

[@FlorianFrickel]

- you still can bounce the flash of dark walls keep in mind you might need to increase your power output from your speedlight to balance the lost of light with dark surfaces - if the room is large such as a church yon can either tilt your flash slidly forward or use a bounch accessory or diffusion accessory for the speedlight -if the ambient light changes you either need to adjust the power from the flash or you need to tweak your camera settings. That’s depending on the situation you shoot in. Sometimes is enough to adjust the flash power sometimes you need to adjust the camera settings and flash. If the contrast of lighting is to drastic and extreme you probably need to reset all settings camera and flash to get right exposure again -flashing directly the subject can be done in different scenarios. Depending what look you want to achieve. If you want a harsh light look or even paparazzi style you can flash the subject directly. If you white balance changes you want to set your white balance either to flash or even set a kelvin this should make it also easier to fix or match white balance in the post process

you will get there, learning by doing and figuring the menu out

[@BlackScubaBear]

Same here

[@TheMiranskii]

My flash isn’t triggering. Any ideas?

[@FlorianFrickel]

Could be a few reason depending on scenario. Make sure your flash is proper insert into the hot shoe so the flash and camera actually communicating with each other. Make sure your batteries have enough power left. (Your flash needs to be matching for your camera brand) If you would use it off camera make sure your channels/ group is matching
