The Relationship of Shutter Speeds and Apertures to Flash

In this information-packed photography class, Karl explores the relationships between flash power, aperture settings and shutter speeds.

Specifically, he looks at:

• Understanding flash sync speeds
• The relationship between ambient light and flash
• The relationship between aperture and flash
• First and second curtain flash synchronization

Karl demonstrates how each of these can work together to influence the final image.

In this photography class:

• How shutter speed works
• Sync speed vs flash duration
• Leaf shutter vs focal plane shutter
• Shutter speed and aperture
• The impact of ambient light on an image
• Controlling flash exposure
• Combining studio and ambient light
