thanks but you forgot to mention the need of a tripod or other support when using slow sync otherwise any background data the camera captures will be destroyed with the longer shutter. also, if you were using a piece of paper as a diffuser, would you not need to increase the flash’s output to compensate to fire through it? wax paper would be better option?
outstanding videos..i needed to find out more on the 580 compared to the 430 and what i need the flash for is as a support light when shooting at racing circuits or dragracing standing next to the dragracing car, do you think i need the more powerfull 580 ? thanks
Forgot to say, its an on camera flash (nex7), with only flash comp. but no manual flash adjustment. If i used an off camera flash with manual, and set it to low power……so low that theoretically, at a high iso it will fill the subject but NOT DISRUPT THE BACKGROUND LIGHTING. HELP!!!!!!!!!
hi, i have a dilemma. I like to shoot indoors at high isos to achieve higher shutter speeds. However, as you have demonstrated here, when i use fill flash my subjects are blown out, and even worst, the room’s llight is overwhelmed by the flash. So i bring the iso to 100, the lighting is great, but the shutter is tooooo damn slooooow. What to do?
Hello there, do you know “PhotoSFXart” (just do a Google search for it…)? On their website you can watch a good free video demonstrating the right way to take awesome pictures. This made it possible for Joe to shoot photographs which leave you with that wow-effect whenever you take a look at them. I hope it will help you also.
Normally why buy a course when you can watch more videos and learn from them, but I must say that I learned more with your video than all the other ones I’ve seen combined. I will look into your link because I would like to buy one of your training courses. Thanks again for well done course.

Thank you!
now i can point and shoot. thank you!
Wow! I love the ideas. Thank you for the tips!
Dont cover your flash with a finger!!! It would give you a very red picture instead of decreasing the power!
