Pengaturan Teknik Strobist

Strobist Technique Settings

The strobist technique is usually widely used on DSLR cameras, but is very affordable compared to studio lights. Apart from being easy to carry, the results are also quite subtle and you can experiment with light.

1. You have to understand how to place the flash correctly. If you have more than one flash, you can place them on the side and back of the object. To make things easier, you can use a light stand. In the strobist technique, more attention is paid to the light intensity for a wider area coverage.

2. You also need to pay attention to the light around the object. Using a low shutter speed can make the light in the area around the object brighter. Meanwhile, if you use a high shutter speed, the light around the object becomes darker.
 
3. For ISO settings , it is recommended to use a low ISO of 100-400 because low ISO is the ideal size for using an external flash.
4. For image quality, you can use RAW files to get maximum results and obtain complete image data.
5. For flash placement, you can try placing it at a 40 degree angle like sunlight so that it can produce natural shadows.
6. For flash mode , it is recommended to use manual mode so you can adjust it according to your needs. The power of the lamp is marked with 1/1, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/16, 1/32, 1/64, and 1/128. 1/2 is for the brightest light strength, while 1/128 is the dimmest light strength. There is also light intensity marked with numbers 24mm, 28mm, 35mm, 50mm, 70mm, etc. At 24mm the light spreads widely, but at 70mm the light spread is narrower.

7. You can practice controlling the use of existing light to make it look smooth and soft.
