    What sort of flash modifiers do you use, if any? Thanks.

    I have a very silly question. Since you are not using a tripod, and you are
    using a shutter speed of 1/60s do you stand still until the shot is
    captured? I’m very new to photography.

    I have one question: if i use trigger and the flash will be located in
    someplace in the room on a light stand, so will it effective as your
    pictures you show in the video above? Could I freeze the action with low
    shutter speed like you?

    Can you please take a time on how to use flash and it is necessary to buy a
    flash gun for beginners.

    HELP ME! I have been following ur videos before I actually got my own dslr.
    When I got mine from ebay -rebel.t3i eos 600d and a 55-250mm lens, I
    noticed that before it takes pictures with a flash, the flasher flickers
    and makes a distict buzzing sound. Is this normal? Im really worried. I
    dont know who to ask about this. HELP… 🙁

    Hey I am a sophomore in high school and I favor sports photography.I am
    going to a camp this summer to improve but I was wondering if you could
    help me answer something for me. Do you know of any free/ cheap photo
    editing programs that are worth downloading? Because since I don’t work I
    don’t have any money. Thanks!

    S if you were doing like a hair flip would you use slow shutter speed or
    fast shutterspeed

    I am in the same situation, My T3i does the same thing its similar to how
    my digital camera used to flash. I have not had any problems with the
    picture quality though. Kwinray are you referring to the factory flash on
    the camera?

    Were u on 1st or 2nd curtain for the flash?

    Out of pure curiosity, did you use a diffuser (if so which one). Secondly,
    are all the images shown in this video shot with direct flash/slightly
    raised? Or have you bounced it?

    Did you post process these images? I see some of them are in black and
    white. I never thought to do slow shutter with a flash, interesting idea. I
    just got an sb700 for strobing, so we’lll see what happens. As for your
    comment on front and rear curtain, its a matter of holding the flash button
    down and turning the dial on the camera. Isnt there something about docking
    a flash on, and the camera changing the shutter when in the hotshoe?

    No need to apologise. You can’t do everything and be everywhere. Just nice
    to have you back 🙂
