[21mrgwalker]

top video man

[niels23]

1/250 th is the fast as i can go with flash

[niels23]

ok thnx... hat shutterspeeds do you use to freeze the image with flash?

[rooflz]

Useful information, but better yet it was entertaining as hell, good video dude keep it up man..

[niels23]

Hee dom so you use small apperture and short shutterspeeds to achieve this effect? What filters do you use. Got myself à d700 And wanna try this

[dombower]

go to my page and type in filters and you will find a video on my filters

[germandude1982]

love the bird sounds! cant wait till summer!

[shivstar]

Hi Dom, love your vids.

Just wanted to know what kind of light stand and holder are you using to prop the hot shoe up?

[dombower]

@shivstar dont know. just some cheap one.

[vichiousfishes]

That is so funny looking! I'm rolling on the floor laughing here.

[Dabelka07]

Klasse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[sasktank]

you need to ask santa for a shirt

[tadej172]

cool, can u do this with just one flashgun, and on camera flash?

ps. I think it would look great on Black and white

[youjunk657]

"As you can see I'm not quite the same build or shape as the guy that is in the photo ". LOLOLOLOL that's funny!

[skatermixer]

nice!! how can you get darker photo in day light

[dombower]

small aperture, fast shutterspeed and filters

[blackxthink]

@dombower

When you have the smallest aperture , you can get the flash to light a specific place in the picture (Like you did) ?

[dombower]

@blackxthink what?

[blackxthink]

@dombower

what was your setting on the camera ?

was it like very fast and low iso + a high f-stop?

so that make everything dark except the area that got flashed

[dombower]

@blackxthink bingo

[rhowell5]

What kind of tripod and head do you use?

[dombower]

one with 3 legs and a head that moves... cant really remember. think it is a manfrotto cost about 170 with the 3 way head.

never got a ball head, really dont like them

[trancein305]

funny.. & cool

[doymachine]

You need to work on your start out of the blocks. Rubbish.

[selectiveinspiration]

I think you'll find that advertisement image has been taken in daylight, not in the dark, as you suggest and remember shutter speed controls the ambient portion of a flash-lit picture, not the aperture ;-)

[djaditya86]

I doubt that.. its the aperture that controls the ambient light most of the time. The shutter speed freezes motion. I cant imagine a sharp picture of a man sprinting at slow shutterspeed!!

[dombower]

aperture and shutters speed effect image brightness the same. (one stop of shutter speed is the same as one stop of aperture) however if you are using normal flash your max shutterspeed is 1/250th you have to start making the aperture smaller as well.

Great videos, Dom. Very informative, well timed, and very cool and upbeat. Loved it. More power to you.

[Oilbeefooked]

nice vid! i just bought a nikon d300 w/ 18-200mm nikkor lens, (thanks in part to you) and it stopped autofocussing. sometimes it works between 18mm-35mm range, but then it won't work greater than that, i.e. full zoom. have you heard of this issue w/that lens?

[dombower]

no not heard of that before, i would send it back asap and get a new one. try and take a video of it not focusing and email the company you bought it from also

[bigspagetti]

dom you are cool! :D

[yot147]

I went to your website and I saw two of cool photos which the snowboard action. How do you do it? What programs are you using? Can you make the VDO how to do it if you can please?

Thanks a lot.

[dombower]

can you explain ....oh let me guess was it the one where it is the guy doing a jump and there is about 8 images of him in the same photo?

ill try make a video about that or that kind of photography but my videoing of my laptop is pretty poor quality. (anyone know how to record off the screen for free?)

[sanderj1989]

There is this program that's called 'Fraps' i think, you can record several parts of your screen or full screen.

[yot147]

What is your F-stop and iso any EV?

[dombower]

f number was high, iso was low, to make the image as free of ambient light as possible.

[Wearden101]

Liking your Spoof advertisement at the end.

Thanks for this tut; I like your videos.

[dombower]

thanks

[eatmypixels]
