Lighting Effects
When bouncing your flash, you may need to adjust your exposure settings, since there will be less light falling
on your subject. The farther away the bounce surface and your subject are, the less illumination there will be.
TIP: Bouncing your flash off colored surfaces can create a color cast in your images. Bouncing off a white or
neutral-colored surface will not alter the color of the light, while bouncing off a gold-toned surface can give
portraits a warmer look. Other colors, while usually not desirable, can be used for creative effects.
Lighting Effects
To manipulate the quality of light from your bare-bulb flash, accessories are available. Included with the Bolt
VB-Series flashes are a reflector and diffuser.
The reflector is used to amplify and widen the reach of the flash’s light. Using this by itself is useful in lighting
a large wall or space with one light source. The included diffuser will soften the light, creating more attractive
and uniform lighting on a subject or area.
Other accessories, such as snoot sets (used for focusing light), beauty dishes (used for lighting portraits),
softboxes (a larger diffuser), and an umbrella mounting kit (for quick and easy broad, wrap-around lighting) are
also useful tools for properly lighting your scenes.
