The book Fotograferen met een kleine flitser explores everything you can do with a compact flash. Photography and the use of light both depend heavily on the user’s creativity. You can make fantastic photographs with any kind of lighting; it all comes down to how you use the light.
Creating magic with light, playing with surroundings and making images that cause people to say “wow!”—who would not want that? Photography is painting with light. Whether we photograph with natural or artificial light (flash or continuous), a well-exposed photograph can make the difference between a snapshot and a “wow” image.
Things become truly interesting when we add light ourselves, or even start with nothing and use light to build the entire scene. Choosing which light to use in a situation is important, and so are your choice of equipment and your understanding of how it works.
This book covers one of the light sources most commonly used by photographers, including aspiring photographers, who want to make beautiful photographs with minimal equipment: the speedlight or compact flash. Those who first want to get a practical introduction to this lighting method can start with a single external flash and a wireless trigger.
After reading this book, you will not only understand what these compact flashes can do for you, but will also have picked up many tips on working with models, locations and more.
