The Complete Canon 600EX-RT Flash Tutorial
11 01 2013Canon’s new top-of-the-line flash unit is a welcome update to the workhorse 580exII. The power is the same as the previous unit, but there are two huge benefits: 1) It can employ radio OR optical (infrared) wireless modes, and 2) it has a much improved navigation system. You can setup five different exposure groups for your slaves, and the navigation is pretty good. It’s better than it was, so now it’s pretty good.
I could not find a good tutorial anywhere on YouTube that explained in full how to quickly use the features of the 600, so I made this one. If you watch this video, there’s nothing you won’t know about the flash, and the video is only 15 minutes.

Two Flash Shoot At Palace Trianon Palais (English Overdub)
14 12 2012
This is the english translation of a shoot I did at Versailles, France. I wanted to show how much I could do with only two speedlight flashes with one lightstand, a radio trigger, and Gary Fong flash accessories including the Lightsphere Collapsible Snoot, and the color domes. The original video is below, and doesn’t look like a Kung Fu movie

How To Photograph Tabletop Products
13 12 2012Lately, I’ve been pretty much dedicated to using only 2 flash units off camera for everything I do. So when my friend asked me to shoot her ice sculptures, I was thrilled because it gave me another YouTube video to add to the library!
The key part to shooting the flowers inside the ice was the PowerSnoot. Using it, I was able to direct the spot right on top of the flowers, giving them saturation and form. In the video, you’ll see the available light images compared with the ones I did with two flashes.

I shot the Sony A77 at the Kelowna Pro Tennis Tournament yesterday, and here’s a sequence I captured. 12 frames per second, object tracking focus, and 24.3 megapixels. It’s pretty freaking fun. Nails the focus. Holy.
