Basically everyone that posts pictures to Facebook of their travels should see this! Well done!
Two things.
You should mention that a lot of pop up flashes can be adjusted in camera by minus 2 and plus 2 for more power. Sometimes if you want just a little fill in a nicely lit venue for example you can vary the light intensity of the flash so that it does not over power your subject and just gives it a nice little touch to fill in the shadows just a bit.
Also you can also mention that in the outdoor side view of the subject shown, you can shoot at the highest shutter speed that the pop up flash allows to suit for a more darker dramatic background.
Another useful tip is to use a popup flash diffuser. I bought a small card that folds into an A shaped tent to fit over top of my pop up flash. It takes almost no space in my bag. It nearly eliminates lens shading, softens the light and the pop up flash is powerful enough to handle it at normal distances.
Love your work, the presentation is really professional but down right simple for me an amateur to understand. Well done.
Dear Mark, Thank you so much for the lovely video. Lex and you make a fabulous team. She is a real darling. Love ladies like her, not over powering, no tattoos, no body piercings (not that I could see either) unblemished skin, gorgeous facial structure: Well, simply she is stupendous. Please keep her for all your informative videos. Thank you.
i watched all your video and i learned a lot from them. as a beginner i want to shoot manual but i don't have the idea how. thanks to you and now i can shoot manual.
Mark Wallace is King! thanks for yet another great tutorial of tips and tricks! always look forward to seeing the adorama videos that have Mark as the instructor!
Thanks, Mark. I need a lot of practice using flash - both on camera and off. So much to learn.
Thanks, that was really helpful! I use a slightly different Panasonic model but I was looking for information on the settings and it has the exact same "slow speed" setting :) and that was precisely what I was looking for (the effect it creates on subject and background).
Very useful tips. Thanks for posting.
Mark, that sunburn must be a lot of fun. Great video as always.
Great information! Thank you! 😃
completely agree - there is no way to save all the folks that use flashes for landscape shots at night - but Mark's doing a great job attempting that, as always :)
What were you focusing on for the 7:01 shot?
Great video, thank you!!
great video as always mark.
This is beautiful tutorial
You could include the limitations of shutter speed of pop-up flash and adjusting the power of flash.
Really useful stuff - thanks Mark
Hope you guys enjoy your stay in Oz. Cheers from Melbourne.
this helped me out A LOT
Wow thanks for the tip
Great video, as are all of your videos.
Pretty good, solid-basic-demo.
Perfect to show my 8yo why he's "special camera w/ flash" doesn't always work as he wishes to, and why he'd need "dad's big heavy flash"
P.S. on a much smaller note, shame (at time of script writing) you guys didn't convert the old style imperial, into the local metric!
Keep up the good work 👍
Great tips Mark. Joe
Hey Mark are you going to be around Melbourne?
How you modify white balance with the flash?
Mark, are you making your way to Sydney??
Welcome Adorama to Cairns. My brother lives there. A great place to live and visit. And it's not really that humid. It's wonderful weather.
For the shot at the pool and slow shutter speed did you use a tripod for that or since using the flash it wont blur...sorry for the newbie question
Mark used Rear Curtain or Slow Sync which causes the flash to fire at the end of the slow exposure instead of at the beginning. This will eliminate any motion of the subject before the flash fires. Background movement, like car lights, not exposed by the flash will still blur, giving a nice effect .
Fantastic
with slower shutter speed you use on last pic Alexa is blurred.. just go for higher ISO, with this light conditions. i mean when you shoot portrait.
Hi Mark. For future information the place is pronounced CARE-NS. Enjoy it.
Why are you using the FZ1000? No Leica M??
The Leica M has no pop-up flash.
Is it me or do Lex and Mark look s bit Magenta? Especially Mark. Must have been a good vacation. As always, Good stuff Mark
You didn't give the exposure values for the daylight shots. Of course, this is what I was looking for. Daylight, built-in flash exposures.
nice video :) and those two should be a couple - they look good together :D
cinexstudios lol... if I know Mark's wife she was taking the video. Mark forgets his wedding ring a lot.
Cairns is keernes.
Alex.....
it's not keernes or karnes it's cans . pronounced cans.
no le tas tirando los perros aw
people should learn how to do shutter and aperture srsly.. they use flash bcs they don't know! they just know it will give a more light..
it depends on what you want to do with the photo.. Sometimes the sky looks amazing for a portrait and you need a flash to light up the subject while exposing for the sky, unless you like washed out skies then its your preference.
flip flops and anklets....welcome to 'straria...
You mean thongs, we call them thongs in Straya not flip flops.
Aye, Thongs mate, Thongs.
