H-1
Dual-light flash operation
When shooting clear glasses (H-4) with a
single built-in flash unit, distinct shadows
appear behind the subject, meaning the
texture of the glass cannot be reproduced
successfully. In this setup (H-1), the
SB-R200 is placed on the right behind the
subject using the AS-20 to bounce light off
the rear wall. In addition, another SB-R200
is used from the top. The result is a
successful rendering of the textures and
contours of the glasses.
