Though flashes can be intimidating, just a bit of knowledge can make yours an invaluable photographic tool. Understand the essential basics of TTL (through the lens) flash photography as you learn flash modes (auto/fill, slow sync, rear curtain, red eye reduction); bounce flash; flash exposure compensation; and accessories. This workshop is designed for photographers who use TTL flashes such as the Canon 430EX and the Nikon SB-700; fully manual flashes such as Vivitar won't be covered.  Students must have a camera with manual controls, a TTL flash, and the user’s guides for their camera and flash if possible.

Open to all levels.

Note: This streamed program will not be recorded.
