Take control of your TTL flash photography

One of the toughest things for me to gain control of has been my TTL (through the lens) flash.  It always seemed to be hit or miss when it came to the right exposure.  It didn't matter what setting I used on my camera: program mode, apurture priority, manual...  The results always seemed to vary.  Sometimes the shots would turn out great, but a lot of times they didn't.

For today's blog I thought I'd let you in on a little secret.  Will Crocket's shootsmarter.com is listed as one of my "Top 10" photography sites and there is a good reason for that.  Shootsmarter.com provides a huge amount of free information that will make you a better photographer.  One of the items they have for sale that I would strongly recommend is their "TTL Flashfacts" video.  Here is what the copy I have looks like.

If you want to finally understand how to get the most out of yourTTL flash then check out this video.  I have watched it over and over and I am finally starting to understand this TTL stuff.  You may not have to watch it as many times as I have, but what can I say... I'm a little slow.

Keep shooting!
