How to take instant photos with a small flash?

Lead: In order to take a picture of instant freeze, we must increase the shutter speed. The increase of shutter speed will inevitably lead to the shortage of light input. At this time, we need to use a small flash to assist us in shooting. Let's take a look at the specific tutorial!

Example 1:

The scenery is to show the moment when the liquid pours. In order to reflect the transparency of the liquid, the photographer illuminates the subject with background light and uses a flash with a light tea red filter to keep the same color as the liquid.

Aperture F9.5, ISO400

The advantage of a digital camera is that it allows photographers to retake it many times. Using this advantage, the photographer can pour the liquid repeatedly with his right hand and press the shutter with his left hand to shoot this moment. By combining several captured images, you can get a very good instantaneous picture.

Then use Photoshop to turn the glass into a flat state, plus a little retouching effect. In order to shoot water vapor, you can shoot it in your own bathhouse set.

Example 2:

Before using Nikon external flash (Speedlight SB-24) to shoot, the photographer first uses the minimum output of ordinary large-scale studio flash to shoot. As a result, the rice grains did not feel static, but took a dynamic instantaneous picture of the rice grains flowing downward when they were dumped.

The flash time of the big studio flash is11800 seconds. Relatively speaking, if the output of SB-24 is set to116, the flash time of11000 seconds can be obtained, so the moving speed can be frozen. Because there is no modeling lamp connected, SB-24 is placed in the same position after confirming the lighting status with other lamps.

It's easy for the photographed rice grains to have no three-dimensional effect. In order to capture the three-dimensional effect of rice grains, you can set a lamp in the corner and then put a small soft light board.
