Flash photography for beginners part 1

[@mikesphotography]

🔴 Here's my latest video ... off camera flash photography indoors and outdoors: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gaG9ZWmXZsuoack

[@kramsniggah4333]

YES! Somebody actually explained how to set up the camera and flash instead of just going straight into the creative side. The massive bonus is no background music and no shouting American!

[@mikesphotography]

Thanks so much Kram. Glad you liked it! 😁👍

[@Wiscoboy.in.Gods-country]

No shouting American lol. Yah, we tend to be pretty annoying in our self absorbed look at me attitudes.

[@mvabiv]

That's insane. I've watched this video 3 times to really grasp the settings and never once did I realize there was no background music. Haha.

[@Aloysious0013]

You are not very bright viking

[@AaronBrownStudios]

@@mvabiv there is background music. Just very faint

Thank you so much for your tutorial. I have struggled to find someone who can articulate this topic in a digestible manner. Your clear & concise verbal description along with examples was brilliant. I'm now looking forward to experimenting with some confidence. Very much appreciate your good work - Cheers

Thanks so much Dean, I'm glad I could help. Flash photography is a bit daunting at first but once you get your head around it, it starts to make more sense! 😁👍

Absolutely brilliant - and NO ANNOYING MUSIC!!! Diction - perfect; video focus throughout - perfect. Content - totally excellent! No doubt I will have many questions regarding macro flash photography when I get further into this new adventure of mine! Cheers from Ian, DownUnder.

[@mikesphotography]

Great to hear Ian, I'm glad you got something out of this tutorial. Haha!! I'm guessing that annoying music in the background that is too loud is a pet peeve. 😁👍

[@mvabiv]

Just wanted to bump this video because it's perfect for anybody wanting to learn flash photography fundamentals. The cheat sheet at the 12:45 mark is great for screenshotting on your phone and saving it to a note so that you always have it with you.

[@mikesphotography]

Thanks so much Moe! Flash photography can be quite daunting but it doesn't have to be. Once you understand it like I've explained, it's a great foundation to build your confidence and skills up from. Thanks for watching. 😁👍

[@JulianLane]

What a brilliant tutorial. Thank you. I've been taking photos for over 40 years, but never really used flash. This video has been SO helpful

[@sissonor]

Great video :) That is a text book style guide. No useless blablabla, yet very entertaining. You have something about that makes a teacher one can trust completely and dont appeal as a teacher. Keep on :)

Gee, I thought I know a bit about using flash. After viewing your tutorial I now know what I didn't know!! Thanks for making the basics understandable.

[@mikesphotography]

No worries John, I’m glad I could help. It took me a while to get my head around it...a photographer I learned a lot off taught me this and once I understood it, it made a lot more sense. Since then my flash photography improved a lot. Thanks for watching and commenting! 😁👍

[@MrG338]

Great video! Excellent explanation of this topic. My favorite was the "cheat sheet" towards the end....it served to summarize all the key points and gave me the comfort in knowing that I had a good starting point which I could them customize as needed. Well done sir!!

Awesome to hear Samuel. Thanks for watching...plenty more to come as well. 😁👍

[@brabs2754]

I have a flash that sat in the cupboard for three years as I could never make sense of it. Session 1 ... was a clear ah ha moment for me, session 2 and 3 were really good. For the first time, and with pauses to harass my wife and the dog with practice (poor dog hates the recharge whine) , I feel confident enough to use the thing. Simple explanation of M rather than TTL & how flash power, camera speed and aperture affect the result were easily followed. Thanks Mike.

[@mikesphotography]

That's great to hear that I could help! It is one of those genres of photography that is easy once you know the basics...but the basics are seldom taught. Thanks for watching 😁👍

[@LiquidTurbo]

I've been looking around for flash tutorials and this is absolutely the easier one that taught me the post. Another great video.

[@garybennett7845]

If it isn’t already planned, I’d like to suggest you do a video on using flash for macro photography. I’m trying to do some handheld macro with a flash. I’ve had some success, but would appreciate your view on this. I do mostly flowers and bugs outside, but would also like to try stuff stuff in my “studio” ( which is a table in my basement). BTW, I appreciate the videos you do, you have a knack for explaining things in a way that’s easy for me to understand. Keep up the good work.

[@mikesphotography]

Thanks so much Gary, I’ll definitely add that to the list! Handheld macro is quite the challenge... Sounds like a good sturdy studio!! 😆👍 my studio is our spare room!! 😆 And thanks for your kind words, they really motivate me to make more videos and tutorials! 😁👍

[@DalsPhotography]

@@mikesphotography I add a + on to macro flash !!! Ring flashes have now become cheaper, and we need to learn more about it. I do macro on a regular basis, but the flash is still a big ??? (question mark) ;)

[@happytang1802]

I’m using a strobe but I’m learning from this video. This is the second time I’ve watched this but I feel I’m learning a lot more since I’m putting things in practice. Thank you for the detailed tutorial

I really needed a video like this!!! Thank you so much for taking the time to explain and educate. All of your videos are super simple to understand. Great teacher. Greetings from Argentina

[@mikesphotography]

Thanks so much Cami! I'm so glad I was able to help. Flash photography can seem like a huge daunting thing to learn, but when broken down into the basics...it becomes a little easier to understand. Thanks for watching. 😁👍

[@barborasobrova9515]

oh gosh finally! All in one tutorial, quick, to the point, clear as....I couldn't be more grateful! thank you! In just 15 min explained what I was looking for for hours on youtube....

[@JeahnLaffitteAdventures]

:o Mind blown! I was super reluctant to get a flash because I figured it was just a cheaper alternative to a constant video light. But now knowing that the shutter doesn’t change the flash exposure, allowing for separate control of ambient and flash light, I know it’s more powerful for photography. Amazing! Thanks mike.

[@mikesphotography]

It does make such a difference once you get your head around it! I'm glad I could help and get you thinking differently about flashes and strobes. They really do come in handy when it comes to photography! Thanks for watching!

i just bought Yongnuo YN560IV yesterday and your video by far is the most comprehensive tutorial i've found. i never would've thought that you could control both the flash light & ambience light just by using the shutter speed. thank you for sharing your knowledge.

[@mikesphotography]

No worries, once you get your head around this, it does all start to make much more sense. I use this technique for all of my corporate shoots and I know I can set it up and get the light exactly where I want it every time. 😁👍

[@stamatiasstamis5165]

Amazing video! I finally understand how the flash works! (I am a total beginner). Would be great if you could make a video about using multiple flash units together.
