Canon Speedlites and Nikon Speedlights are small, off-camera flashguns that can provide
big results - if you know how to use them properly. Acclaimed Boston photographers Lou
Jones, Bob Keenan and Steve Ostrowski guide you through the technical and creative
aspects of how to get the most out of these powerful tools in this indispensable guide,
packed full of inspirational images and comprehensive diagrams of the lighting set ups
used to capture them.
They are significantly more advanced, lighter and considerably cheaper than a standard
flashgun, and have many advantages. They are small (and cheap) enough that a number can
be carried in your kit, and they can be used in combination, triggered wirelessly. They
use through-the-lens (TTL) metering, which allows you to use the in-camera LCD and
histograms to calculate the required power/direction, rather than having to use a light
meter or trial and error. They use proprietary, dedicated technology (from Canon and
Nikon) that means there are no compatibility issues.
