Nice one. FWIW, I think you got the balance about right explaining things. Which level to pitch instructions is not easy. These flash units can genuinely frighten people when they're not used to using them. I remember when it came to "STOPS" we were taught to think of the Sun in the sky: Two suns are double (1 stop increase), 4 are double again (2 stop increase from 1). Back the other way from 1 sun is 1/2 a sun and then 1/4. Thus 0 (E)TTL Is that 1 sun and you are just working away from that. Good tips on the ISO (sensor sensitivity to light easy way to think of it). As a hobbyist, I can be guilty of not considering that as often/fully as I should if going quickly.
@@jamesmgreen15 Thanks I worked extra hard to get it right. I know I am not the best at small detail explaining so I’m working on it, lol. Appreciate you! Thanks very much! Tomorrow video should be great with the new release!!
I'd like to add a couple of things when using either ETTL or Manual flash. If you're shooting a bride for example in a white wedding dress, or a reception or event where all the tablecloths are white, or the bride in a white dress by a white limo, you'll need to overexpose by a stop or so because your flash will see all the white and think it's too bright so it underexposes--so will your camera. The opposite occurs when you're shooting groomsmen for example who are dressed in all black tuxs, or a black limo, or extremely dark room, your flash and camera will thing it's too dark and overexpose. So, in this case, you want to underexpose your flash by a stop or so. It sounds complicated but it's easy to do and easy to get used to doing.
Well done, Daniel. Thanks.
Thank you, I really appreciate it! Thanks again for watching!
