  • In this video I go over 3 basic ways to trigger a flash, strobe, and/or speedlite with and without a trigger. With a trigger you can use radio frequency (RF) communication for triggering flashes. If you don't have a flash for a camera, no worries you can optically trigger the flash using slave mode! Check out how to set your flash in slave mode and camera to take advantage of flash exposure compensation. These are some techniques that are great to know for any photographer!

    En este video, repaso 3 formas básicas de disparar un flash, una luz estroboscópica y / o un flash con y sin disparador. Con un disparador puede utilizar la comunicación por radiofrecuencia (RF) para disparar flashes. Si no tiene un flash para una cámara, no se preocupe, ¡puede disparar ópticamente el flash usando el modo esclavo! Vea cómo configurar el flash en modo esclavo y la cámara para aprovechar la compensación de exposición del flash. ¡Estas son algunas de las técnicas que cualquier fotógrafo debe conocer!

    I’m so glad I came to RUclips before I bought that trigger! I watched your video and saved some money. I’ll still get a trigger down the line, but for now I can save that lil change. I subscribed. Can’t wait to see what else I learn from your channel.

    Finally! Thank you so much! One question sir I'm a newbie photographer, I've been using Canon EOS M200, can you recommend a speedlight that can match my camera in slave mode settings? Thank you!

    • @TMIDD
      @TMIDD  Год назад

      Godox is a great speedlight choice, especially once you start to buy even more strobes because you will have an ecosystem of the same lights.

    I have an R5 and I'm surprised to learn. I need an extra device to remotely trigger a flash.
    I would have thought such a camera might include such functionality.

    Can you use slave mode and HSS together where you have HSS on Main/Key light and slave mode on fill and kicker light? I have a YN200 with HSS and trigger but my other yn660"s don't have HSS. Basically is the optical sensor fast enough to activate the slave speed lights and the show up in pic?

    • @TMIDD
      @TMIDD  3 года назад

      That's a great question, I will say that it will not be a guarantee every time especially depending on how fast your shutter speed is so I wouldn't rely on that. I have done it before and was able to capture a flash without HSS in the photo but my shutter speed was barely over the sync speed. So for reliability I would get another flash with HSS or configure your shots so you stay within the bounds of the YN660, which is usually 1/200.

      @@TMIDD thanks for the quick response, I am shooting with the D800E and don't don't have any issues syncing the 660's up to 250th but my budget AD200(YN200) does the HSS fine as the main Key light, was just if I wanted to do some 2 and 3 light setups in HSS would the 660"s in slave mode work. looks like I am going to have to get a 2nd YN200 if I want to say with the same system. So far I have 1yn200 and 6 speed lights (2 660's and 4 basic with 4 yongnuo receivers and they all work great as long as I stay at 250th. But thanks again and keep pitting out those good vids, they help.
