book 2: off-camera flash

off-camera flash photography book

I’m really pleased to announce that my book,
Off-Camera Flash Photography, is now available and can be ordered via Amazon or from your local bookstore.

With this book, I once again took great care to compile additional material along with the info that is spread over numerous articles on the Tangents blog. I wanted the material in the book to flow as a truly accessible introduction to off-camera flash.

As always, the aim was for those aha! moments when things become clear and just makes sense. And then, hopefully, inspire the readers of the book to see how easily off-camera flash lighting can expand our photographic repertoire.

You can either purchase a copy via the Amazon link here, or alternately, if you’d like an autographed copy of the book, you can order one directly from me via the link below. The book is also available on the Apple iBook Store.
 

Shipping and packaging is included in the price.
Please select the correct region when ordering.

Correction:

I would like to correct a small error in my book, off-camera flash photography:
(No matter how many times work is cross-checked, entropy will have its way.)

On pages 49 / 50, the descriptions in the text for image 6-1 and 6-2 don’t match the numbering of the images. 6-1 is the image with flash; and 6-2 is the image without flash (ambient only). Despite this hiccup in numbering the images, the images themselves and descriptions should be clear enough that this would not have been misunderstood.

On page 66, the first paragraph starts with “By angling the softbox away to a fair extent (images 7-8 and 7-8).” That second “7-8″ should be “7-9″ instead.

On the same page, the second paragraph starts with “In the second example (images 7-10 to 7-14)…” The images should be 7-10 to 7-13.
Image 7-14 is on page 68 and covers a different topic.

Reviews: Off-Camera Flash

review by Ron Mart:

“I’m going to list this book as a strong recommendation for non-Canon shooters (especially Nikon) who want something a little more in-depth to complement The Moment It Clicks or Hot Shoe Diaries by Joe McNally. If I had to pick one of those three, I’d pick this one simply because there’s more “how to” in this book than in Joe’s books (which are great as well).”

“For Canon shooters, I still think there is great value in reading this book but you will find Speedliter’s Handbook: Learning to Craft Light with Canon Speedlites is the Canon Speedlite owners (i.e., 580EX II) dream come true – it’s EVERYTHING you wanted to know about the Canon flash system, accessories and more! It’s a much thicker book and if you’ve got the basics down, then you may find Neil’s book to be just enough to get you in the right direction (with 10% of the required reading time).”
