FAQ

An on-camera flash is a lighting accessory that attaches directly to your camera, typically via the hot shoe mount. It provides additional light to illuminate your subject, helping to reduce shadows and enhance image quality, especially in low-light situations.

Most on-camera flashes are designed to be compatible with specific camera brands or models. It's important to check the flash's compatibility with your camera's hot shoe mount and electronic contacts before purchasing.

External on-camera flashes generally offer more power, faster recycling times, adjustable angles, and advanced features like bounce and swivel heads. This allows for greater creative control and more natural-looking lighting compared to built-in flashes.

Key features to consider include flash power (guide number), tilt and swivel capabilities, TTL (Through-The-Lens) metering compatibility, wireless triggering, and the availability of manual controls for customizing your lighting.

To use bounce flash, angle the flash head towards a ceiling or wall instead of directly at your subject. This diffuses the light, creating softer shadows and more even illumination. Many on-camera flashes offer adjustable heads for this purpose.
