Nikon d90, do you need to turn on the flash when taking portraits in the Woods?

Generally speaking, an external light source is needed to fill the light to cover up the shadow spots on the model's face.

Description-

The flash index of the camera is low, and the closer point is still effective. If it is far away, you need an external flash, but the external flash is the same as the camera's own flash, because the supplementary light source fixed on the camera is relatively rigid. If conditions permit, outdoor lights and reflectors can be used.

Practical tips-

For enthusiasts, it is really some unknown expenses to buy more expensive cameras and better outdoor lights and reflectors. In fact, this money can be saved.

I'm a photographer, too. We meet to travel outside and shoot models. The reflectors used are all made by ourselves.

1. Tin foil paper is sold in the supermarket.

2. The cardboard is cut with a cutter, which is suitable for carrying.

3. The tinfoil paper must be rolled into a knot and then unfolded carefully. (After the crumpled tin foil paper is unfolded, the reflective surface will increase and become soft) and then stick it on the cut cardboard; The other side is painted with white paint to make a softer white reflector.

Personal practical experience, according to the distance and light source to adjust the distance and brightness of reflection. Therefore, an assistant is needed.
