🔴 Here's my latest video … off camera flash photography indoors and outdoors: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KpZ46a1fu3g
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….
Very useful and well explained content Mike. I'm learning how to use flashes and it is the best video I've seen so far on YT. Many thanks!
Thank you. I searched and searched and searched, i found this, now I am an expert. MIND BLOWN…. Good job
Best explanation thank you!!! 😎
As completely new to flash photography, this was really useful. Thanks.
ISO can't control the exposure, it's not a part of it.
what soft boxes would you suggest? I def know i need to learn some flash stuff for inside events / wedding receptions.
Great introduction to flash photography! Thank you!
Thank you very much, not only rich in content, also very clear and well organized! Best flash tutorial so far for me, and I’ve seen plenty of!
Wow… what a good and easy understandable explanation… thank you very helpfull!
This is by far the BEST one!
Great Video ! Thank you for posting.
This is a really great video, and very helpful to me for understanding how to logically set up a shot using a flash.
One thing: can you elaborate on your note about the display when using a mirrorless camera? I have an EOS M50, and I can't find the setting you mentioned. At least, it isn't obvious to me, but maybe if I understood better what you meant, I could work around this.
Thanks again for the great video.
Subscribed this 27th day of november 2021..i wish to learn flash phoogaphy
awesome video thank you
Thank you for this simplified explanation
Thank youuu
This was perfect thank you.
Thank you for this! I’ve been taking photos for a while now but only recently received a real flash and this video is really clear!
You are the man!! Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!!! Great video!
Super..
Thanks this was very helpful.
Thank you for the video, very helpful! Something that I don't understand is: if the flash power is at 1/4, the f.stop ideally should be at 5.6? If the flash power is at 1/2, f should ideally be at 4? Thank you in advance! Davide
Mike Thank you!!!! This has been the best explanation to Flash photography I have ever seen. I finally understand it.
Thanks! Very informative!
I own a flashlight since more than a year but I never really liked to use it. Never really understood the basics, even after watching some tutorials. But after watching your video, my motivation in practising how to use a flash definitely came back.
Thank you very much for this awesome content, you‘re doing a great job.
Subscribed! Looking forward to watch more of your videos.
