Nikon Training Specialist and Photographer, Paul Van Allen, delivers a special hands-on workshop designed specifically for Nikon owners who are getting started with wireless flash. Paul will begin with a short overview of the buttons and menus for wireless flash. After a solid understanding of how to set-up your gear, you will be photographing at “Shooting Stations” set-up in the the room so that you can practice making the most of this amazing technology. Our Lighting Stations are generally one or two flash set-ups that can easily be duplicated at home. The entire evening is designed to help get you jump-started into the wonderful world of Nikon Wireless Flash.
Participants will need to bring their own NIKON camera and lenses, and Nikon will provide all the flashes necessary for this event. Due to the technology used by the other manufacturers, non-Nikon cameras will not function properly for this workshop.
The recommend cameras for this workshop are the: D80 / D90 / D7000 / D7100 / D200 / D300 / D300s / D600 / D700 / D800 and D800e as all these cameras have the wireless commander system built-in.
Lens recommendation: a moderate telephoto (80mm through 135mm) that will focus closer than about 5 feet. Other lenses may be used with varying degrees of results.
