That's not really what they are saying in this video though are they?
It ends with them saying external flash units are a professional tool and most people wont have them so they are going to look at other methods to get the same results without investing a lot of money.
This is just an introduction to a series of videos or a longer video.

What a jackass. Thanks for telling us that BMW is a better car than Kia. No shit! The point and shoot camera cost $100. A good flash alone for DSLR camera cost $400. See the difference and why people choose cheap point and shoot over $1000 DSLR plus the added flash light for $400 and maybe extra lens for $600? Because, they can't afford it or they know nothing about good photography. Expertvillage people are STUPID.
