Ping-Pong

Another image for my Creative Lighting with Speedlites Workshop tour.

Next stop - Minneapolis on June 13th...

Same set-up as the golf ball shot, but here I'm using a ping-pong ball to illustrate in-camera multiple exposures of moving objects by using flash in "Multi" mode. This method works best with light objects against a dark background due to the lengthy shutter speed.

Details:
- Canon EOS 7D DSLR
- Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6
- Canon Speedlite 580 EX ll

Speedlite Settings: "Multi" mode / 1/128th power / 40Hz
Exposure: 1 sec @ f/11 ISO 100 with 2 second timer
