    Could you do another one with flashes ( some cheap options?) where you explain the general technique? For example my integrated flash of my canon t5i only allows a shutter speed of 1/250 (at least it seems like that). Does this mean that an external flash won´t allow more aswell? night fotography is also a whole nother topic in skateboarding.

      I'm sure you can use just about any camera. The lens is what matters. Affordable cameras can be a canon t6i or a sony a6000. Personally I would go for the sony since the sensors are known to be better.

    @StephenKazumi Před 5 lety

    Go as high a shutter speed that you can before your shot is underexposed and you've maxed your ISO comfort level. There is no magic number. How high you're willing to push your ISO will vary from camera to camera, thus effecting how fast you can crank your shutter.

    • @joshkatz
      @joshkatz  Před 7 lety +3

      It's part of journalistic integrity. Photographers need to tell honest stories, and posting a photo of a trick that wasn't landed is like telling a lie. Totally fine if you make it clear that the trick wasn't landed in the caption, though.

    • @theharristrain
      @theharristrain Před 7 lety +1

      fair enough. i guess there's journalistic photography and theres photography that just tries to make art rather than tell the truth
