Playing Around with my Flash
Equipment Used:
Nikon SB-400 Speedlight
Nikon D40 Standard Flash 52mm (78mm equivalent) ISO 400 F5.6 1/60
Nikon D40 SB400 tilted 90Degrees Flash 52mm (78mm equivalent) ISO 400 F5.6 1/60
As you can tell, the standard flash that comes with the camera produces a flash that is very strong on the subject, and not quite natural. However we are so used to seeing this type of picture because most people don't carry a flash with them wherever they go. However, on the second picture, with a 90 degree flash added on the camera, the picture produces a photo that looks more natural, with natural lighting.
