Strobe portrait experiment


Camera mode: M

Shutter speed: 1/60
Aperture: 8.0
ISO: 400
Speedlite: right side, on side table
 Camera flash: on

 How to sync flash: First, turn on the flash. Second, make sure the mode is set to ETTL. Next, hold zoom button until 'master' comes on. Then, turn the nob down to slave. Last, turn on the camera with pop of flash on and take a picture (should work). 

Okay so to achieve this lighting scheme its quite simple. First, adjust the camera to settings above with pop up flash. Second, have the subject stand about 3-4 feet from wall. Third, have speedlite on feet (stand) and place to the right, I had the speedlite on the a small table. Last, adjust the subject according and say cheese and press the shutter button.
