How To: Easily Fine Tune Your Flash Right From the Camera

Strobist reader (and relative lighting newb) Ron Ibarra of New York City asks, via Twitter: "I can't control the flash through the PC cord. Am I doing something wrong?"Nope, Ron, you are not. A PC cord is what we call a "dumb sync," meaning it only triggers the flash but does not otherwise control it. And if you are a smart photographer, all you really...

Coming Soon: Inexpensive Cactus Laser Triggers?

Georgia-based photographer Brian Hursey has been testing an advance set of laser "trip-triggers" to be released by Cactus.These are the types of triggers designed not for syncing but for motion-stopping photography.
