Photography Tips Guide

Posts Tagged ‘Flash’

I have photographed my two little dogs (they have very similar geneology as they are brother and sister) and under identical circumstances their eyes have different colours in reaction to the camera flash. You have heard of “red eye”, one of my pups gets the classic red eye reaction however my other one gets a green eye reaction, even when they are standing next to each other in the same shot. I have heard that the green eye reaction can indicate a possible problem with the eyes with cataracts in later life. Can anyone confirm that or perhaps explain the difference?

I suppose there has to be some compatibility between those elements
but have no idea which products would fulfill that requirement.
Since I am not a professional photographer but I do not consider myself an amateur either, I need something not too expensive but of some quality. Any ideas, suggestions, comments?

My girlfriend is a photographer and has been asked to take pictures of an IT company’s products (hard-drives and the such like), but she is unsure of the best set-up to use so that the flash doesn’t reflect on the products. She mentioned something about an umbrella light but says she has no idea of whether that’s right or how to use one. Any help appreciated!
