Aye man props to you for still going thru with the video upload. OBVIOUSLY, we can't always have the best results when we are filming by ourselves and are unable to monitor the audio and focus. But AGAIN shout out to you for still uploading the content despite the mistakes. Also, the wind noise actually wasn't that bad. Good stuff!

Good video. Thanks for making it. I switched from HSS to ND filters ( I use the sensor clip in filters) about a year ago, and for me the main benefit has been enabling me to downsize my strobes to smaller, lighter units. I sold my AD400 and AD200 and replaced with an AD300 and AD100. I’m always looking to carry less gear and this is a perfect solution for that.

@Steve Rogers it's very interesting to me that you made those switches; I do understand the size and weight differences, but to me both of those flashes are overpriced, especially the AD100, but if size and weight is important, cost is irrelevant. I appreciate you watching and commenting.

G'day from down under Anthony. Mate, what a great video. I loved the content, which I am always chasing. But the additional entertainment for me was your total honesty in its presentation. You seem to be self-monitoring those oft-used words, "again, obviously" - good for you buddy. Bloody great stuff. I know I'm replying to a year-old vid, but I hope my comments make their way to you. I've subscribed because I see a lot of intelligent photographic information in you. And mate, the way you handled the wind in what seemed to be a one-man crew (you) was bloody fantastic. Beauty mate. Look forward to learning heaps from you. Get to Aus Wallaby sometime, I think you will love it - particularly if you love a cold beer on a hot day cobber. Cheers.

I'm glad this video was helpful @Dietrich Abraham! ND's are definitely the way to go unless you either a) are on the move and only need HSS for a quick shot or b) you have something like an AD400 or AD600 that has ample power to accommodate the loss. Even still, I personally think HSS is unnecessary wear and tear on the bulb so I avoid it at all costs.

Thanks for making a video demonstrating the difference. I've seen so many videos saying you lose 3 stops with HSS, but they use a 3 stop ND to make up for it. I was always left wondering if there was a real benefit. This shows that 3 stops isn't really 3 stops. Thanks!
@AnthonyToglife
@AnthonyToglife 3 жыл бұрын
@HNSB there is a flash power loss when using HSS, but I don't know how many stops it is. My light meter doesn't allow for HSS metering so I can't even test it. I guess it doesn't matter, the important thing to note is that your flash power is decreased, quite significantly too when you're up in the higher power settings.

@@mirobalic3613 hands down, yes, absolutely as good, and with many of the filters on the market today, the RF adapter ND's are better. Not to mention the ease of changing lenses and still having ND is beneficial. The downside, however, is when you don't need an ND, there's nothing to put in the slot when you have the ND removed, so you either have to keep it open, which will allow dust and things to reach your sensor, or you'll have to swap out to a non-ND adapter.

Again, another great video, obviously. When shooting with an SLR we had to try to focus and compose through 8-stops of ND and HHS was great for the user experience. But now you have me thinking that with mirrorless, shooting with ND and staring at nearly a black image shouldn't be an issue.
@AnthonyToglife
@AnthonyToglife 3 жыл бұрын
@John Gress it's definitely a hell of a lot easier on mirrorless with expo simulation being off (by default due to flash). Using my 3-stop isn't too bad even with a DSLR but when using my 6-stop, it was a serious struggle. With my R5, no issues whatsoever although I rarely need a 6-stop in this situation.

nice explanation video. and love the humor, obviously. the only downside to nd filters is that if you get into 6 stops (or more), you have to prefocus before putting the filters on. af (as far as i know) won't function with the image being that dark. your subject would need to be pretty stationary. but i mainly shoot older mf glass. maybe newer lenses and cameras are capable of focusing through darker nd filters.
@AnthonyToglife
@AnthonyToglife Жыл бұрын
This would be the case with DSLR cams but not so for mirrorless. Sense mirrorless focus with the actual sensor, it adjusts the exposure to be able to get focus without issue. I use 6 stop ND’s quite frequently with video, and there’s never an issue grabbing focus.

Hey @Cezarygon, it depends on how many stops of ambient you need to cut out. I usually use shutter speed to figure it out. If I know my max flash sync speed is 1/250, I count how many stops from my ambient exposure it would take to get me to my flash sync speed. For example, if my desired ambient exposure is 1/2000s, I can calculate I need a 3-stop ND filter to get me to 1/250s.

awesome effort. You are so fit probably 6 days a week in the gym. Again, obviously right, you know that obviously

Hahaha @kack7130, thanks for the laugh lol. I am in the gym pretty regularly but it's more to stay fit from just an overall health perspective, the physical is just an added bonus. ;-) Thank you so much for watching and commenting.

Lol @Darrin Lalla, I have them but it wasn’t forecast to be windy so I didn’t think I’d need them (I’ve recorded at that location quite a few times.)

The only thing cumbersome about taking off nd filters is when they get stuck

you need hss when you shoot actions, sports - nd filters not good for this
@AnthonyToglife
@AnthonyToglife Жыл бұрын
Well, you typically don’t use flash when shooting sports, but if you’re referring to fast movement in general, not necessarily. The flash can freeze action just the same (if not better) than shutter speed, as flash durations are shorter than even the max shutter speed (depending on power). If there’s movement in the background as well, then yes, HSS would be the better choice.

@@AnthonyToglife I shoot beach volleyball competitions. I have special permission for shooting with flash (if players do not mind). I can say exactly - ND gives you not so good result. Yep, you need HSS snd high power (ad600 or more powerful)

You just ruined the video not because of the wind noise, but because those annoying red popup signs every 10 second, along with that high pitch bell. I could not concentrate in what you said. Stopped watching, NO LIKE

@Sammy Tolomeo that’s fair. I appreciate the feedback. I likely wouldn’t do something like that in a video these days but I can’t change old videos so it is what it is. Thanks for commenting.
