Do you use flash or daylight?
I prefer flash. I believe you should control as much
as you can in photography, so I like to take control
over where my light is coming from.
When I started out in photography, flash was tricky
to get right. But nowadays, the Canon E-TTL II flash
system makes it very easy. I have six Speedlite
600EX-RT flashes with an ST-E3-RT Speedlite
Transmitter that sits on my EOS 5D Mark III. They
work brilliantly – I use them for advertising work
and portraits on location in offices. I can shoot at
wide apertures for shallow focus and I can use fast
shutter speeds.
It’s a great lighting system to get into. You can start
small with just one flash, plus a Speedlite Transmitter
so you can use it off camera. Then maybe later you
can borrow a friend’s flash when you are shooting
together or buy a second Speedlite. But really, for
good pictures you just need one source of light.
It’s like I always say with good photography:
keep it simple.

“The two fixed focal length lenses
are great not only because of their
sharpness, but also because of their
bokeh – the character of the out-of-
focus backgrounds.”
