In this Canon-specific workshop, you will learn how and when to use your Canon Speedlite – both on and off your camera. Our emphasis will be on creating great light with one flash. We’ll talk how to set the power in both ETTL and Manual modes.. We’ll also explore all the other Speedlite settings, like: sync, pan, tilt, and zoom. We will look at the difference between hard and soft light and then explore a wide range of modifiers you can use to create beautiful light for portraits.
