    It is a great reminder. Often times it seems I am looking for new fresh ideas constantly and forget that I can use the set and lighting to capture additional poses without having to move. Pye is awesome.

    Great video as always, Pye. I use CAMP and also the MagMod stuff. FYI, I just recently compared the spread of various combinations. The grid was a small circle, the bare flash was an oval a little wider but a lot longer, and the grid/sphere combination had the largest spread but of course was more diffused.

    Actually my flash exposure goes down - because if the background is being underexposed, you don’t need as much directional flash power.

  • @larryb0315
    @larryb03159 ай бұрын

    Is the flash in Auto Zoom or Manual Zoom, if Manual what setting are you using with the 24-70mm lens, Pye? PS, I love the way you teach, I have subscribed!

    While I'm not Pye - so he might have some more insight. I can share that I know he shoots almost exclusively in Manual. His regular saying is "when in the sun, 1/1 power and when in doors match the ISO." So for example when shooting indoors at 3200 ISO, the flash power would be 1/32th power, or if at 800 ISO then 1/8th power. Hope that helps.

    you have to set each flash to a different group. On our remote you'll see A, B, C, etc. Set your flash to the corresponding group you want and then you can set the flash power individually.

  • @MagnetMod

    Yep boost nailed it. You just need to make one flash A, and one flash B in the settings. Once they are in different groups then you can control the power of each group.
