Flash Photography Basic Concepts

Every Flash Photograph is two exposures in one.

Fill Flash can be used when subject is backlit or sidelit to eliminate silhouettes or shadows.

Flash exposure isn't affected by shutter speed.

Your camera measures ambient light and flash illumination separately.

With automatic flash metering, the flash illumination is measured after the shutter button is pressed, and the flash output is adjusted accordingly.

Every SLR camera with a mechanical shutter box has a maximum flash sync shutter speed.

Harsh lighting washed out subjects and red eye can be eliminated

Its posable to change the order of when the flash fires using 'Rear Curtain Sync."

Removing the flash from the top of the camera helps eliminates red eye and unflattering shadows.
