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..

[@FarahBeyond-lh4iz]

U r forever young ALL 😍😍😍 Channel admin Farah N 😉 😉 😉

[@frost8077]

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.

[@ashkarali6873]

Andrew... Thank u

[@travellerg5834]

Great tip

[@rinothmani6064]

Thank youuuuu 😍. Stay tuned, we have many more tips to be shared. - Rin Othmani, Channel Admin -

[@studiothreecs]

Hey Beyond Photography! Could you take time to teach about time-lapse and types of it?

[@rinothmani6064]

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 -

[@sirwillemgaming9686]

Oh so that's how to do it. This'll help for my future shoots.

[@ared18t]

Place a 1/4 or 1/2 cto gel in the afternoon it's awesome for the shade you need the opposite.

[@nambaalerobert7408]

[@YRChoudankar]

Hey Andrew's, can you please make video on ball pen photography lighting? or small product photography

[@whitedovenc]

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.

[@misafarah.bp23]

Thank youuuuu whitedovenc. Great suggestion in night photography there 😍😍😍 Channel admin Farah N 😉 😉 😉

[@thepirateshoots]

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.

[@rinothmani6064]

Thanks for sharing that 😍. Really good tips. - Rin Othmani, Channel Admin -

[@Pokemon76305]

Whenever there is good even light in indoor I always use direct TTL flash. Nikon's matrix TTL metering system is awesome. It gives excellent result in a very busy and fast action packed events.

[@FarahBeyond-lh4iz]

Thank youuuuu for sharing it with us prakashsatam ❤❤❤ Channel admin Farah N 😉 😉 😉

[@TheAndrewChannel]

I find that it can only be good with the higher end more expensive models. The cheaper ones, i sometimes feel they purposely dumb it down and it can get pretty inaccurate. - Andrew

She is wif cap! The shadow on her face... Now tats tricky 😅 if flash is not aim properly...

[@riz6392]

thanks sir, another nice video.. which camera and lens you use for this video?

[@Mphoto7036]

I will go for the flashed photo

[@techmex63]

Any video on shooting direct flash indoors at events or portraits? Also what are the advantages and disadvantages on direct flash indoors?

[@mazar4225]

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...

[@Lucy-dk5cz]

Because he is an idiot. I seriously feel bad for those that he scams into buying his content

[@zeissiez]

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.

[@BeyondPhotography]

@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

[@learnwithdhare5785]

Lovely video. Can it be done with flash that has no TTL?

[@MarcoACasco]

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 !!!
