Ойын-сауық

Join award winning photographer Jason Lanier as he walks you through the most important things you need to know about High Speed Sync and Hypersync Flash Photography. PLEASE THUMBS UP, SHARE, LEAVE A COMMENT, AND SUBSCRIBE!!
Jason first sits down and tells you the ins and outs of using High Speed Sync with your camera and explains how everything works. He then walks you through a shoot he did in Tasmania, Australia using High Speed Sync showing you the differences between when the flash fires vs. when it doesn't.
High Speed Sync and Hypersync are some of the most frequently asked questions Jason receives and is the reason why he created this video that we hope helps all of you out there.

    Layman's terms on why use HSS: 1).It's a bright day 2).You need your model facing away from the sun (no squinting) This creates unsightly shadows which we want to eliminate but we still want to retain a shallow depth of field For a wide aperture we need a fast shutter speed due to the bright conditions Using HSS we can overpower the shadows without losing shallow depth of field and without overexposing the natural light

    I see an argument for a slightly expanded depth of field. He was keeping clouds in some focus sometimes and to me the entirety and lasting value of the shot is better this way. However no question about HSS in general. Its great.

    Come to Tasmania! Joking aside...I LOVE using HSS.. I think everybody should know and understand it if you're charging people money. The more you learn and the more you know the more value you have.. I tend to be a nerd when I love something. I fell in love with photography two years ago and I study every single day. Now after 2 years I'm outshining a lot of local photographers. And they're actually asking me questions on learning new tricks and techniques. Learning high-speed sync is just having another tool in your tool belt

    @Stephen Soukup, hypersync DOES NOT require one to shoot 1:1 it only requires the power turned up enough to give a long flash duration. Broncolor doesn’t require full power for HS for example, you just have to basically use at least 50% of the flash power, which on location you’re often doing anyway. Inferior lights usually have less options. Other than that, overall Jason’s video is on the money.

I am truly amazed at how beautiful your pictures come out. ..and I'm determined to make it happen for myself. thanks man for taking the time to make these videos. if you ever come down to Florida, let me know.

So why can't you just do a shot and then in post increase the exposure of everything except model? Or vice versa for a contra lightning?

I really like the idea of the Sony cameras but could only afford the A6000 at the moment. so I'm thinking do i stick with my Canon 40d,750d or buy 2 A6000 and get the 30 and 50 primes. Are the Sony cameras that good ? thanks again
