Can you guys please help me? I'm been trying to find out the name (if there is one) of that color effect used in the fist picture with the guys in the car. Anyway, are thoso colors straight out of the camera or there is photoshop there? Please, help me! lol
1/200 is not remotely fast enough to stop the jumping action in the band pic. If the camera was set to 1/30 the pic would most likely look exactly the same if there is not much ambient light. The FLASH DURATION ranges from 1/500 to 1/2500 depending on the system being used... This is what stops the action. At best you can stop the action of someone walking at 1/200... 1/1500 is the starting point for jumping shots. Nice pics, but get the technical facts correct.
@bunkyvancouver - it's Taylor Gahm (the photog in this video). You're absolutely right- the flash duration is the key to capturing the fast motion in this controlled environment without ambient light- NOT the shutter. I misspoke for sure, confusing sync speed issues with capturing fast motion. Regardless, I do use the 1/200 setting on most of my work- which apart from this image is usually a mix of both strobes and ambient. Thanks for your input and kind words.

Thank you for this tip! How large close and powerful must your lights be to get a decent exposure?
