If you've followed my
recent videos and blog posts, then then you've seen how much fun I've been having shooting closeups of flowers in my garden.
Well, last week, I added a new component to the mix: Flash.
Using just a single off-camera flash allowed me to create even more dramatic closeup images that have increased depth and boldness. For my shots, I've been using Fuji's new
EF-60 flash and
EF-W1 Wireless Commander, which allows you to control a single light, or any number of lights with ease.
Both of these items use the Nissin Air System, which is a powerful radio remote solution for doing off-camera lighting.
Nissin even has an affordable intro kit that gives you
a flash and wireless remote for a very reasonable price. It's
enough to get you started, and it will allow you to get looks like these photos below, and it's available for numerous camera system, including Nikon, Canon, Sony and Micro Four Thirds.
As always, have a great week and let me know if you have any questions.
