5 EASY STEPS You Need to IMPROVE your FLASH Photography skills. Flash photography for beginners

[@vtk_jnr]

I dont understand why people dislike such videos. You'd have to pay money to gain such knowledge, but Jiggie gives it for free and from the goodness of his heart.

[@sincereee___]

You're a legend. I understand how to use flashes now, after only watching two (2) of your videos! Really well explained - thank you!

[@mahendrabhaindarkar804]

This was the best of the videos I’ve seen ever, which explained in detail how to use the flash. Thanks a lot Sir 👍

[@hmoobs1]

Agreed

[@johnnysparkleface3096]

Finally, I've found the flash tutorial I've always wanted to see! I've always been confused about whether to make adjustments on the camera, or with the flash - meaning, how the camera and flash relate to each other. You've explained it all beautifully. Thank you, Jiggie, you're my new flash hero. I'm subscribing to your channel right now!

[@JiggieAlejandrino]

That’s great to hear! Thank you!

[@kinhho8402]

You are the best and intelligent instructor i have seen in youtube. I am living sydney do you have online course that i can enroll and learn. Also from this video, aperture control flash power if the flash is using in manual, if the flash is ttl then aperture will not affect flash exposure. Pls correct if i am wrong

[@MatthewTolanNZ]

This is the best explanation I have heard about setting up my flash! Thank you

[@JiggieAlejandrino]

Glad it helped!

I've got a bit cofused on the video tutorials that i've watched before your's. You've helped understand it more clearly. Thank you for reminding me that using full flash power drains the batterries fast. And i've learned from you, in order to avoid that, thats the time i need to increase my ISO. Thank Ji! God bless you!

[@JiggieAlejandrino]

Glad to hear thay

[@udaykiran1911]

The video is excellent sir. I have a small doubt. Please clarify it. At time duration 12:40,you said that you will increase the iso so that you don't need to use full power thus reducing the draning of flash battery. By increasing the the iso, you are increasing the ambient exposure. My question is,Why don't we decrease the shutter speed instead of increasing the iso, as both ways, we can stop ourselves from using full power on our flash.

[@RaymondPros]

Thanks for this video sir Jigz, dami ko natutunan eh..nka save pa sa playlist ko para mapanood ko ulit.

[@JiggieAlejandrino]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@MikeT-yy3]

Hi Jiggie, at 12.57 you raised your ISO to 400, which allowed you to lower your flash power and reduce your recycling speed, Thai understand fully and it's a great idea.However because you increased your ISO to 400, surely the ambient exposure will now be 2 stops brighter. You are already at 1/8000 so you cannot increase your shutter speed to lower the ambient. Can you please explain how you correct this increased ambient, I am confused regarding this matter. Many thanks in anticipation of you solution. Michael

[@Oztubee]

When shooting with flash: If you shoot at f/8 or f/10, would you keep the ISO at 100 and lower the shutter speed? I think that will cause motion blur if the subject moves a little, so would you increase the ISO instead? How would you set your shutter speed in this case? Will that depend on the “high-speed sync” shutter speed of the flash? For example, if HSS syncs at shutter speeds from 1/400 to 1/8,000 seconds, can I go higher than 1/400, like 1/10?
