FLASH ACTIVITY


USING TRIGGER AND SOFT BOX

Side Light

Side Light

Rim Light


USING SPEED LIGHT (FLASH)



FLASH

My Professor discuss about using flash in photography. They watch a video about the discussion about the different lights such as:

= Photoflood- It is very hot. (2900k)
= Halogen
= LED- Expensive but durable. 
= Fluorescent
= Speed light
= Studio strobe

Meaning of TTL and ETTL:
TTL (through-the-lens)- metering is a feature of cameras whereby light levels are measured through the lens that captures the picture, as opposed to a separate metering window.
E-TTL (evaluate through-the-lens)- for CANON users only.

I know the different angle of light (Direction of light) such as:
= Front Light
= Back Light
= Top Light
= Side Light
= Rim Light

Modeling Light- mix of light to the model.

I know some basic tools for flash in Photography:

Hot shoe

 Soft Box
Light stand


Light Bouncer




Reflector



Flash Trigger



I know how to clean CAMERA :)
That's All :D





Reciprocal Rule in Photography

What is reciprocal rule? (Reciprocity)- It is a law of a relationship between aperture and shutter. It stipulates that one stop increases in aperture is equivalent to the shutter duration doubling. Both increase light by one stop.

It allows to retain the same exposure or to balance but change either the shutter speed or aperture. When you use this rule, twice and much light coming in for half the time is equal to the same amount of light.

This is my activity to shoot an image and they need to use reciprocal.

Base: 
Aperture    Shutter speed    ISO 
F8             1/125               400

Reciprocal:
                               Aperture    Shutter speed   ISO                              
                            F6.3          1/200              400                          


Reciprocal:
                               Aperture    Shutter speed   ISO                              
         F10           1/80                400       


As you can see, the three images above are same but different exposure :)
Sometimes it's confusing because you need to know and to familiarize the exposure and a little bit of mathematics hahaha :)
