There has been some interest from some members of the club in learning how to use their flash when taking photos. I have been reluctent in the past to really touch on this subject simply because I am not a good flash photographer and I would hate to steer someone down the wrong path. That being said I have come across a wonderful blog that deals with flash photography (primarily dealing with off-camera flash). There is a ton of information on this blog and I think it would be a great place to start a journey on flash photography (just do not blame me if you spend too much money on buying multiple flash guns).
You can check it out here: Strobist
This website is about one thing: Learning how to use off-camera flash with your dSLR to take your photos to the next level.
Here, you’ll find everything you need to know about how to more effectively use your small speedlights. There are more than 1,000 articles about lighting. Over a million photographers from around the world have learned small-flash lighting techniques from this site. We’re thinking you can, too.
Have fun……..
Edit: For those of you using Canon EOS speedlights here is a great resource for getting help in understanding how the Canon speedlight system works. This is required reading if you are having trouble with your Canon flash system.
