  • Understanding how to use High-Speed Sync Flash Photography can be confusing. Why use high-speed sync for portraits anyway? Here is, for me, why and how to use high-speed sync in portrait photography. HSS photography doesn't have to be a mystery, to me I have a very cut and dry reason I choose to use it. This is NOT about HSS vs ND filters, maybe we'll talk about ND filters in another video. In this video, learn flash photography in this high-speed sync tutorial about easy flash photography.
    Here's an EASY guide on High-Speed Sync EXPLAINED. A Flash Photography video for you.
    Hope you enJoy!

      Some flashes don’t have HSS. And it does lower power and suck up the battery so you have to take that into consideration:)

    Great explanation of HSS and some beautiful portraits with nice soft backgrounds. I was surprised to see the flash modifier pointing straight ahead. When it's elevated to such a height (above the model's head) I thought it would be angled downwards normally - like about 45 degrees.

    Amazing video. Could you cheat and use HSS on your trigger WITHOUT having a flash? As a way to avoid using ND filters

    • @VanessaJoy
      @VanessaJoy  14 дней назад

      HSS only applies to the functionality of the flash, it doesn’t darken your exposure when using natural light like an nd filter does

  • @georgenlewis9150
    @georgenlewis9150 3 года назад

    Excellent video as always. Question: with the Shutter Speed that high, wouldn’t it kill the ambient light...ie the hair light which was so pronounced at the beginning? Thanks.

      Yes absolutely, which is a preference whether you want that or not, controlled by how high you go of course

    I hadn't realised that you can high speed sync on non-Canon flash, I've only done it with speedlites. The 135mm is surely the hidden gem.

    • @VanessaJoy

      RT Speedlites for location.
      I have been looking at the Profoto air range, though, they look good.

    Hi, I've been thinking about adding an ND8 to solve the exposure problem, but I'm worried about the color bias

    • @VanessaJoy
      @VanessaJoy  3 года назад

      You can definitely do that. I’d assume the higher quality filters don’t affect color so much.

    • @Simon-SBL
      @Simon-SBL 3 года назад

      You don't generally get any colour cast issues with a good quality ND8, colour shifts are more common from 6 stops and beyond, but of course, you don't get the benefit of fill flash, either.

  • @nevvanclarke9225
    @nevvanclarke9225 21 день назад

    I think one point to remember also though is lenses are best at F4. If you're looking for sharpness now you can do a lot of post production stuff sure but if you want to get the best out of your lens many lenses operate best between F4 and about FA so yes shooting down at 1.7 might be nice but you actually decrease the image quality ... So I think there is a slight trade-off
