With a running time of just over an hour, your host, professional photographer Tim Mantoani, takes the mystery out of these flashes and shows you how to use them to their best advantage. Whether you own one or several of these speedlites, Tim walks you through real world situations that can be made better with repeatable techniques. He not only tells you HOW the flash operates, butWHY the engineers designed the flashes with their current set of features.
