lightmeters are used extensively by professionals and are not for NOOBS! not using one on a pro shoot would make you look like a NOOB! as you would spend forever getting your light correct. I fail to see how you came to this conclusion it being a NOOB! thing?
Thanks for these zool1on. After reading the exercise there were a couple of things I was unsure of (probably because my camera was not to hand and my ebay triggers haven't arrived yet!) but seeing you carry out the exercise has cleared up my queries.
I agree with adblink182; a stream of the images at the end of each part of the exercise could hammer home the ideas a bit further. But you've done an excellent job anyway! Cheers.
Nice video, helping me understand this a lot more. One suggestion however, at the end of the video, it would been nice to see the photos one right after the other, it would make it alot easier to compare the changes/differences in the results from the changing of position of the flash
why did you use a shutter speed of 1/200 ?

@yosheeut88 because that's his cameras max sync speed.

@yosheeut88 because that's his cameras max sync speed and he probably wanted to kill as much ambient light as possible.

thanks you very much for these videos, I always understand it much better when someone tells and shows me, rather then reading it from a website.
