Thanks Roger. I appreciate your support. I go back-and-forth from my Tesla to photography and videography so hopefully I can share some more knowledge that you can use for your photography. More to come.
Brilliant! I love the technique of getting the base exposure by using Aperture Priority. I have Godox V1c and it took me months to try and work out how to do HSS flash. I thought that the flash would only work in HSS when mounted onto the camera hotshoe, but as you say in your video-they are well designed and know when faster shutter speeds are being used, even though there are no HSS symbols visible on back of the flash. It works, my wife and I tried it at f1.4 in bright sunlight=perfect exposure. Thanks for some awesome photos too for inspiration.
i typed in on youtube " using high-speed sync with hard light" and after 4 videos i saw this one. and now im a subscriber! i liked your approach and explanation and how very natural you showed it.
100% honesty when I say this... Truly inspiring... I definitely want you to know this. Thinking to get an AD200 or the AD300 (on a budget) but wow great photos, great information. Thank you
Great video! I have a question. How did you around the "Flash EVF issue "? when the camera switches the "live" view mode as son as you insert the Flash? Thank you in advance. Oops! You are shooting Nikon not Sony....
What camera has a flash evf? Spy has this issue where if you’re in Electronic shutter mode or silent, flash won’t work. You have to make sure mechanical shutter mode is on and silent mode is off.
@@CameraToFreedomthanks man I'm going to pick up a godox ad400 I'm getting for a really good deal and picking up the other stuff I can't wait for this...thank you!
Thanks for the tips, your photo's are Outstanding, quick question please, i never use a speedlight before and I have a eos r7, what kind of speedlight should I get that will compatible with my gear? If you could help me please that would be great.🙏
@CameraToFreedom thank you so much, I truly appreciate your help link and for the link, the truth is I absolutely no idea on how to use a speedlight nor i can do strobe photography, I only ask because I wanted to learn after seeing all your photo's, but don't know where to start, thanks again🙏
This was super helpful. I love taking pictures of my daughter and I never understood lighting. I always pay for professional photography but it added up over the last 10 years. 😅
It’s great you supported the photographers! It’s good karma! Now that you’re getting into photography you’ll have a better understanding of what clients want! And karma will give you clients!
Hi first I would like to thank you for this wonderful to to your videos that you are sharing. I would definitely buy product from your Amazon you deserve it. I have one question why do you need to shoot with shutter speed because the object is not moving? I’m not sure I understand the first part of the video is it because of the speed of the flash ?
Thank you so much for your support! The first part talks about getting the right flash that has HSS high speed sync which all the flash I mention does. I have some nikon brand flashes that don’t have the HSS ability so it forces my shutter to be at 200 or less. When it’s bright outside you need your shutter to be at 600 or even 1000th of a second to get a properly exposed photo.
I love 32 inches if it’s in a studio and not much moving around. Otherwise I use 24 inch for engagement shoots and a tiny one for weddings since I have to carry it myself.
Hey man I recommend the MagMod mag box pro 42’ it’s super convenient and assembles and breaks down in 20 seconds as well as produces some of the best light I’ve seen. Nice pics !
@@CameraToFreedom awesome! But this one isn’t a speed light like the one you’re using in the video, you’ve linked a strobe light :) or am I wrong? Thanks !
You can set the triggers so that the light knows there's multiple triggers on the same channel and they can all have different power values actually. It's the menu setting with the one person the three people and off.
Great video, Myong. Let's talk about those amazing night shots with the stars in the sky. Can you give the break down of those shots? They were spectacular.
Nice video! Thanks!! My problem using hss with flashes is that they take loooong time to recharge until I can shoot again. Anyone with the same problem?
This happens to me too if I forget to turn off the modeling flash. Everyone you turn on your ad2”” and your remote, it automatically turns on the modeling flash even though your trigger has it off. So you have to manually turn off the modeling flash every time so your flash works as best as it can. With that modeling light on your flash becomes so slow to refresh within handful of flashes taken especially in the heat.
HSS lowers flash output (amount of light the flash puts out by up to 6 stops), reduces battery life, increases flash recycle time, and worst of all, especially in hot weather/direct sun, more quickly overheats the flash. As a person that shot almost exclusively HSS for the last 5 years, it's not worth it. Just use an ND and 1/250s shutter. Only use HSS for action you need a faster shutter (sports, dance, movement), not for portrait, environment, fasion.
hey mate i hava a camera canon eos r8 im still searching a speed light and trigger. i have 2 choices (430ex iii-rt , Godax v1 for canon) i need your suggestion?
So first off, Godox came out with an awesome touch screen mini trigger that I recommend! amzn.to/3wOusXz then the flash I recommend is this Godox for canon that is lighter then v1 but better and lower priced then the 430ex - amzn.to/4bM6fjF
i bought the same soft box and my ad100pro don't fit in it. am i missing something? cause it look like ad100pro head is the same as your flash youre using
I put in the description for V1 which is the big round head speedlight like the ad100. The first link is a softbox for a regular speedlight. Return that to Amazon and get the second link that says for v1 speedlight. It has the bigger head. I’m deleting the softbox for the regular speedlight in my description now. amzn.to/3tHhb1r
@@fidodido664because you can get more faster recycle charging time for each shot from the flash. But i don't use it neither, just shoot the flash streight to thier face with speed 1/160, from my lazy photoshoot. Lol. It's good enough for the couple sometime.
You welcome. I first had it full 1/1 power when it was sunnier then as the sunset comes in and gets darker my light power would be half and then 1/8 and lower as it gets darker.
I've been looking at the Godox V1 and the 860iiiS TTL for Sony along with the XPS trigger. Of the two flashes which one do you prefer? Also, to clarify, are you shooting TTL with the HSS?
HSS will work with TTL but I wouldn’t recommend it because you won’t get the proper lighting that you’re looking for. After using all their speed lights, I like the 860 because it’s smaller. Get the one with the built-in lithium battery. Here’s the Amazon link for your Sony camera amzn.to/457GtDh Also, out of all the wireless triggers that they have, this is my favorite one amzn.to/3OPWnfH
My camera allows for a variety of sync speeds to set it at. What would be the reason to set your in-camera sync speed to anything lower than 200? If you set it to 200, then you can still shoot a slower shutter speed. So, why would you set it to say, 1/60?
The reason why you would bring your shutter lower to 60th is incase you want to capture more light in a dark area. Or if you want to capture some light streaks a little.
You don’t have to for sure. I like grub sometimes since it’ll do a good job just lighting my subject and not light the background too much. More controlled but I like regular softbox too.
Any stand but here’s the trigger you’ll need. This one is the latest and the coolest that has touchscreen. Be sure to pick your camera model: amzn.to/4fN2ugm
You can use the umbrella for sure! You can do silver umbrella to make your speedlight stronger or if you umbrella is soft white then you can even face it towards your subject. Handful of different ways of using your umbrella.
@@CameraToFreedom makes sense. I have the V1 makes all the difference from 560 II but I guess both could be used via a trigger? Also any recommendations for shooting outside beach party at night?
Two options. Use your speedlight facing forward and go TTL and shoot wide open aperture, shutter 60 and iso 400 if not more. Creative style, have two speed lights up on tripods high up opposite of each other and use your remote trigger to get creative lighting shots.
Thanks for asking Ninaa! Here is the link to the softbox amzn.to/3LqbFGN and link to the adapter that holds the speedlight and the softbox together amzn.to/3mQ5WQa
great video. pro tip for run and gun couples shoots: min ss 1/250. f/4. auto ISO. continuous eye autofocus. Manually adjust flash power with HSS on and review shot and adjust flash power if necessary. I have Flashpoint AD200 but went with Profoto B10 [without modifier - you will need the power and easier to remove in PS] now so I can read transmitter LCD and LCD on flash in full sun and it is MORE reliable than the AD200. Why? My assistant accidentally changed the settings on the AD200 flash with his hand and we could not see-read the LCD screen on sunny day to correct the settings. horrible situation when doing formals for a wedding -- looking like a rookie! will never take godox-flashpoint for outdoor shoots. ok for studio work.
@@CameraToFreedom my point is the AD200 is the wrong tool for outdoor wedding-family photography. the profoto b10 is the best choice since you can read the lcd in full sun. plus the ad200 misfires a ton.
Usually at half power then I just move my softbox closer or further. When the sky is brighter I’m at full power then I lower it as the sky gets darker.
I'm surprised that Makaela was shooting the couple wide open (f1.4) and keeping them in focus. Normally for couples I would have to stop down to around f4 to ensure sharp results
I first prioritize aperture, want blurry background then I’m at f2.8. Then I bring my ISO to 200. Then that’s what determines the shutter. If it’s bright outside then it’s high 40@ or above. Once it get darker sunset then it come downs to 100 Ro any where that gives you the proper setting. So shutter is what fluctuates but aperture and ISO is what stays still.
Brother you failed to show us how to do it. We all know you can, but the point of us taking our time to watch your video is to learn how to do it ourselves. 🤦🏻♂️ SMH
@@CameraToFreedom why is this even a comment? “ Plus is a free video” ??? Is a free video that a thumbnail says you’re going to show me something and instead you’re showing poses that’s all I’m saying.
fake infos...In original photos is sky overexposed...much work done in PS or LR....whit this Flash and Settings you will not get good results....Click Hunt Video :-/
It was unnecessary talking about previous other couple’s height groom shorter and taller bride. Make it sound like it’s a bad thing and awkward looking. It wouldn’t be nice for somebody to talk about your race. Lame.
Greatly appreciated that you show photos with just the sun before showing the photo with the speed light added.

Thanks Jonathan!
Oh to have so much time for these photos ! wait are these models ????lol please get in the real world
They are my wedding client. This is there wedding photos and they were willing to let me film them. This is real time.
@@CameraToFreedom , Apologises I genuinely thought they were models.
Brother you failed to show us how to do it. We all know you can, but the point of us taking our time to watch your video is to learn how to do it ourselves. 🤦🏻♂️ SMH
I thought I showed you how to do it. I try to teach how I would want to be taught and this was it. What are you confused of?
Plus it’s a free video 😒
You showed a lot of posing but not how to program the flash to get the HSS set on the flash
@@CameraToFreedom why is this even a comment? “ Plus is a free video” ??? Is a free video that a thumbnail says you’re going to show me something and instead you’re showing poses that’s all I’m saying.
fake infos...In original photos is sky overexposed...much work done in PS or LR....whit this Flash and Settings you will not get good results....Click Hunt Video :-/
That’s not true. This photos are not photoshopped at all.
It was unnecessary talking about previous other couple’s height groom shorter and taller bride. Make it sound like it’s a bad thing and awkward looking. It wouldn’t be nice for somebody to talk about your race. Lame.
How is having a fun conversation about height compared to talking about race. That is dumb.
Lovely
Thank you Joelz 😎
