Off Camera Flash TTL Vs Manual

Off Camera Flash TTL Vs Manual • Let’s debate! • If you’re not aware, TTL flash is essentially auto mode for your flash, and off camera TTL flash just means that the camera can control the flash wirelessly. • While manual flash is exactly what it sounds like. You manually control the flash output. The only communication between the camera and the flash is when the camera sends the signal to fire, and off camera manual flash, means you can send that firing signal wirelessly • This is the principal difference between the two types of off camera flash systems. • You’re either controlling the flash power yourself, or you’re allowing the camera to do it for you. • So which is better? It's simple. • Manual flash is better. • Think about it for a minute. How much time have you spent learning how your camera works and how to shoot in manual mode so that you can insure the photos look the way you want them to look? • So if we want to control our cameras manually to insure we get the results we want, then why on earth would you want the camera to choose your flash settings for you? • If you want your photos to look exactly the way you want them to look, then you’re going to want to have full control over your flash. • With off camera TTL flash, you just don’t get that. • With TTL, every single time you take a photo, the camera re-evaluates the scene and sends new instructions to the flash, setting a new power level for the flash to fire at for that photo. • So you might be shooting off camera flash TTL, and, and everything’s going great, and something changes. Maybe it’s a camera setting, maybe you move the flash a little bit, or maybe your subject moves, and then all of a sudden, for what seems like no reason, the flash is way too bright or dark because that small change you made completely changed the camera’s reading of the scene. • And now you’ve got to fight with your camera to get your flash back where you want it, but because you’re using TTL, you don’t actually know where it was in the first place, so now you’re guessing. • With off camera manual flash, there’s no chance of that happening because the only time the flash power will change is when you decide to change it, and that consistency is, in my opinion, priceless. • The other problem with TTL is that the camera and flash are stupid. The meter inside the camera makes the decisions that set the flash power in TTL, and it doesn’t understand complicated lighting situations. • Watch next: • How To Set Up Your Off Camera Flash: • How To Set Up Your Wireless Off Camer... • The Secret To Flash Photograph Success: • My Super Simple Process For Flash Pho... • Recommended Playlist – Getting Started WIth Flash Photography: • How To Set Up Your Wireless Off Camer... • Free Flash Photography Quickstart Guide: http://shp.photo/flashguide • π΄π΄ Live Schedule π΄π΄ • Photo Blab: Mondays 11pm Zulu here on YouTube • Business Wπ·nd Up: Wednesdays 3pm Zulu on Facebook (https://shp.photo/facebook) • Friday Subscriber Hangout: Fridays 5pm Zulu here on YouTube • π Subscribe for more free photography tutorials: https://youtube.com/user/selfhelpphot... • β Recommended playlists: • Learn How Your Camera Meter Works And How To Use It: • • How the Camera Meter Works and When i... • Learn All About ISO, Aperture Shutter Speed: • • How Your Camera Talks To You (and Why... • How To Get Started Shooting With Flash: • • Complete Off Camera Flash Setup For U... • β€οΈ If you find my content helpful, become a patron: / heniadis • Disclosure: Some of the links I use are affiliate links, meaning, at no additional cost to you, I will earn a commission if you click through and make a purchase. • Want to save time and learn a LOT more?
