FAQ
What Is TTL Flash?
TTL flash adjusts flash output automatically for optimal exposure by measuring light passing through the lens of the camera. It works in real-time by analyzing how much light is reflected from the scene when the flash fires and adjusts the intensity of the flash to match the camera's settings, such as aperture, ISO, and shutter speed.
TTL flash has the advantage that it allows you to capture more moments and is better suited for snapshots. Its control accuracy, however, is not as high, and its exposure may not always meet your needs.
How to Choose Camera Flashes for Wedding Photography?
A lightweight camera flash is perfect for wedding photography as it allows easy maneuverability during extended shoot sessions. Holding and using it are also more comfortable, particularly when combined with other gear. In addition, you need to focus on flash capability.
You should look for flashes with adjustable power output and various light modifiers to control the light direction and quality. For better performance at larger venues, consider wedding photography flashes that have high guide numbers. You can ensure that you capture every moment without missing a beat by choosing wedding photography flashes that have fast recycling times.
How To Choose the Right Camera Flash?
When shopping for a flash, one of the most important things to consider is its recycle time. If you're shooting events or action scenes, you'll need a flash that recycles in under 2 seconds—anything slower could mean missing a key moment. Flashes powered by lithium-ion batteries typically offer faster recycle times and longer battery life, making them a great choice for fast-paced environments.
Power output is another critical factor. For basic indoor photography or casual portraits, a guide number (GN) in the 40–50 range is usually sufficient. But if you're working in larger venues or shooting outdoors—where you can't rely on ceiling bounce—you'll want a more powerful flash, ideally with a GN of 60 or higher, to properly illuminate your subject from a distance.
Finally, a good flash should offer flexibility. Look for a flash head that tilts, swivels, and zooms to give you more control over how your light falls. If you're planning to shoot off-camera, built-in wireless functionality is also a must for convenience and creative freedom.
