Shooting with any kind of flash whether a simple light on your camera, a remotely-triggered unit, or a complete studio setup completely changes the photographic experience. No longer do you simply need to be aware of light; now you need to know how to shape it to meet your needs.

The Flash Photography Field Guide, small enough to be taken on the most arduous shoot, will show you exactly how to do this, whether you’re shooting models in a studio, live sports events, or something as special as the wedding of a loved one. This book covers the details of setting up and using modern TTL flash systems, and the creative and technical choices you’ll come across, from syncing the flash with the camera to modifying the quality of the light.
