They work great as general food photography backdrops too. I used two narrow wooden boards for interconnecting flooring. One to place the limes on and another to create a brightly colored background.įor the first one, it’s better to choose something narrow that you can easily take down.
#Photo splash 2 manual
Pick a Speedlight flash or a fast enough strobe.Īlso, check your manual and find if the impulse speed of your light source is at least over 1/4000s. This is the speed that helps freeze liquid in motion and keeps all the drops sharp and clear. In my experience, short enough flash duration for water splashes is about 1/4000th of a second. This shot should look like a black rectangular. To avoid blurred drops, take one shot with the speedlights turned off. This way, the camera sensor is only exposed to the light for the duration of the flash.
If there’s no ambient light available, the flash is the only visible light source. It won’t matter if your shutter speed is set for 1/250 of a second or for a half a minute. The light will be hitting the sensor of your camera for only the amount of time the flash is working, lighting the scene. Since you are shooting in a dark setting (and you should!), the flash duration will become your shutter speed. It refers to the length of time that a flash emits light for a single burst. This is a characteristic of any flash or strobe. You can use anything that has a short enough flash duration though. These are affordable and easy to use solutions for frozen motion problems. In my case, the scene is lit with two SB-910 speedlights. You can use strobes or hot shoe flashes (speedlights). It must be suitable for shooting high-speed scenes such as photographing water drops.
