Multiple
Flash
Photography
If
you have another flash
un
it, you can u
se
it
as
a seco
nd-
ary light source for multiple flash photogra
ph
y. When you
use only one flash unit
in
front of a subject, harsh sha
d-
ows may be produced or light may not reach the back-
ground. But by us
ing
more than
on
e flash unit, you c
an
solve these problems.
With the
8B-16
and F3-series,
FA,
FE2
, F-501/N2020,
F-301/N2000,
FG
or Nikonos-V camera combination, both
TIL
and manual multiple flash photography are possible.
In
both cases, one important fact to remember
is
that the effect
produced
by
using more than one flash unit depends on the
lighting ratio or balance of illumination between flash units.
80 first
you
should determine the role of each flash unit,
deciding which flash will
be
the main flash and which the
secondary.
To
create pictures with high contrast, give different ex-
posure to the subject and background
by
adjusti
ng
the
aperture, shutter speed and/or camera-and flash-to-sub-
ject distance.
