Get Your Flash Exposure Right Using TTL!

In this video, I explain and demonstrate how using TTL flash will sometimes give you inaccurate exposures. I then demonstrate how the use of exposure compensation can address this, giving you a perfect flash exposure.

The way I spat coffee when the model arrived haha. Loved this demonstration, Mik! Thank you!

[frheart]

This explanation needs more love than it has received. Thank you for a clear example and thank you to Brixton, who I hope is still well, for modelling.

I might have my first outdoor event tomorrow and I just bought a flash last night and been watching your clips for hours. Thank YOU!!

[GerryGonzalezNunez]

This is a good explanation of why I shoot in manual flash mode, having to adjust settings using TTL beats the whole purpose of a supposedly superior automatic mode. Thanks for the video and thanks to Brixton for his patience.

It really is the first time ever I see a dog on strike, only to regret her behaviour then... what a revelation this was !
Great work Mik, you are a Master of souls.

[albert_oglri]

Another really helpful explanation! Thanks @MikMilman . No fancy frills; clear, straight to the point. :D This video deserves more!

[JulioMacarena]

Really like what you do, bruz. Easy to understand, efficiently presented, and a lean towards being passionate about creativity and artistic.

One of the most beautiful models I've ever seen!

[michelledorion]

[raimclaren]

A really good example of how the camera and flash works. Thanks for taking the time and spending on a model 😅

[tomkolour]

Very useful tut' I'm always worried when using flash but this has helped a great deal, I'll put it to the test Thursday at a wedding, thank you

[sbhopper]

Just watched again. Haven't touched my cameras in ages and thought I'd get a little refresher.

[CandidCamPhotos]

Just... lmao. The perfect amount of awkward to keep my attention. Also the advice was very helpful!

[MrPixelgrower]

You had me from the opening of the door! Great !!!🤣

Hey Mik!

Thanks for this amazing, short and to the point video!

The model is a really good boy!

Next week I will photograph a big event (I am invited as a guest but it is a friend’s 50th birthday and there will be many guests and live music so it is a great opportunity for me to practice)

I have watched many flash videos but haven’t seen this type of explanation.

I was just reading how to change the exposure compensation in TTL mode on my Godox V1 O for my Panasonic Lumix S5 IIX

I would have not guessed that I need to UNDER expose for black walls and OVER expose for white walls.

It would seem it is the other way around.

But this is where you came and showed us!

Thank you!

From Bulgaria 🇧🇬

Literally this video is a game-changer for me!!!!❤ I'm so grateful🙏

[loganz]

Ive been using flash for the last 20 years and never knew how to use Flash exposure comp correctly. I'll give this a try at my next event.

[shiontheartist]

I luv your tutorials, u explain everything well and in detail

[rhpreal]

The moment you realize it's a dog at the door 😂 great video!

[mrerk]

Was it so simple 😊 I have been struggle with using blitz correctly in manuell modes but TTL look more easy to use.
