orbis® ring flash episode 004 – Off Camera Cord Basics

Written by

in

The basics of using an off camera cord; why you’d want to and how simple they are to connect, with some examples of off-camera cord photos with and without the orbis™ ring flash. Be sure not to miss using the orbis(tm) as a small softbox featured at the end, for directional light that isn’t harsh. Thanks to Anita, the model, from issis.co.nz for her help. Next video, setting up Nikon’s CLS system !

    Really nice introduction to off camera flash. The Orbis is not magic or the ultimate – just a softbox with a hole in the middle. If you don’t need the hole, you can just bounce the light off a piece of cardboard of the same size – or better: Bigger. The bigger the better. A white wall is great.

    I just bought this camera at Costco here on Vancouver Island…..charging it right now..Cost me $224 canadian dollars plus tax.(our dollar is just about the same as the US dollar right now) I see some people are complaining the camera battery gets charged while in the camera…not good if you have a back up battery you can use while the other is charging. I have been using the Sony DSC-W270 up until now.Hope this one is better 🙂

    I like your couch dude! and ummm the camera looks pretty good I want one kind of pricey for me but I’ll probably save up for it I love the sound and how it doesn’t make any noise or mute when zooming in and out.

    you did a great job on this info video, it kept my attention. Love your home and yard. Looks like you live in the northern part of Wisconsin by the trees and landscape. I would really like a video on how to use all the features. I am very lost with this camera.
