Subject: Using Flash to Stop Action presented by Ron Mayberry
Electronic flash can be used to take sharp
photographs of events occurring at high speed. Most hot shoe flash units
designed for DSLR cameras can provide flashes of light as short as 30
millionths of a second. This is sufficient to "stop" such events as the
burst of a balloon, capture a drop of water or freeze the wings of a
Hummingbird in flight. The main problem to solve in taking photographs
of these events--or simply in using electronic flash to view them
directly--is to trigger the flash discharge when the event is occurring.
Several types of triggers will be described and demonstrated.
