How to Use Your Flash

A speedlight, also known as a hot shoe flash, is a crucial and powerful camera accessory that can significantly enhance the lighting in your photographs. In this class, you will acquire the skills to use your flash effectively with your camera. The session includes examining students' flash units, trying out lighting styles, and discussing how each person can leverage their equipment to create various lighting effects.

Students should come to class equipped with a camera (with a hot shoe), an SD card, a flash, and the respective manuals for both the camera and flash. Also, if you have triggers or modifiers, please bring them along. Don't forget to bring fully charged batteries! This class is great for those who want to expand on basic camera knowledge and is an excellent continuation for those who have completed Intro to Digital Photography.
