Re: My journey to learn Photography: #1 :Experiments with Camera's Shutter Sync
For the 1s who are interested:
When shooting n object in low light situations a person has 2 options; either 2 shoot with flash or with slow shutter speed to gather more light.
1. When flash is used most of the digital cameras automatically use faster shutter speed, it makes ur subject lit and frozen, the problem is that it will also leave subject lit up too brightly and can leave the background v dark coz the camera didn't had enuf time to capture the ambient light.
2. When longer shutter speed is used to capture enuf light 2 get a well xposed shot, this technique is good for scenes where ev thing is still but if u r using a moving subject, the shot will have motion blur in it which ruins the whole thing.
to overcome the drawbacks mentioned above a technique is used called "Slow Sync Flash" or "Dragging the Shutter". this funtion is mostly available in the digital SLR's which tells the camera to shoot with both a longer shutter speed as well as firing the flash. What I did was that 1st I got the settings for ambient light shooting then I entered these settings in the manual mode of camera. Then I found moving subjects and tried to physically drag my camera with the same speed the subject was moving. Flashed when the subject was in perfect position and continued to drag the camera afterwards. What it does that flash captures only the subject which is on focus and freezes it and the flash turns off but due to longer shutter speed the shutter is still open which captures the movement of the back ground.
I am starting to like photography n more then that I am starting to like the loadz of options available in the camera itself.

tx ev 1
I think 4 my next topic I shud select sumthing simpler lolz
Re: My journey to learn Photography: #1 :Experiments with Camera’s Shutter Sync
i tried this long time ago.. problem was, it was still blurring the background.. its like, (physics-ly speaking) there is NO solution to low/dim light photography.. except to use full spectrum sensors with 750-850nm limit removed..
nice work though i must say :k:
Re: My journey to learn Photography: #1 :Experiments with Camera’s Shutter Sync
Nice pics :k:
What camera/lens did you use ?
Re: My journey to learn Photography: #1 :Experiments with Camera's Shutter Sync
Awesome.
What I am trying to do is sumthing like this
http://www.paklinks.com/gsmedia/files/13854/secondcurtain709863.jpg
the 1st is without the flash so don’t u see anything other then the trail, the second one is with using first/front curtain sync and the third one is with second/back curtain sync
Canon EOS digital Rebel XS with 90 mm
This a great example for those who want to play with shutter speeds and flash.
Keep in mind the toy is traveling from Right to Left.
I commonly use the method Seema has has shared with us when taking photographs of dancing at weddings. Rear curtain sync allows the camera to capture ambient light (longer shutter, more ambient!) while the flash allows the freezing of the subject (bride and groom, random uncles etc).
Great job.
