alllright! nice episode mister. i swear i could even see more warm tones on your face this time, hehehe.
oh, and welcome godaddy. let’s hope this is the beginning of getting something back for the professional kind of work you do.
enough flowers for you!
It’s fantastic how much and how quicker I learn with your videos, if compare to the various articles I read on the same subjects. Thanks, Chris.
Chris, I have a question though. You used the grey card under available light, but what about when we are using flash(es)?How to measure the light from the speedlites that didn’t fired yet? Do I have to have an external flashmeter in order to control my exposure/white balance?
