What means the expression "slave" in accordance to flashes?
I am getting into amateur photography and I am just learning about external flashes for my Digital Camera. Now I already found out what the difference btw an strobe and a bounce flash is (not quite but i have an idea) and now they are talking about slave flashes or something. I'm lost! Can someone help me with my question and has an answer to it?
I appreciate all serious answers. Thank you
A slave flash goes off to add to the main flash. It has a light sensor or a radio receiver (if you have high-end flash units) which sense when the main flash is triggered.
You can buy add-on slave sensors to add to extra flash units to convert any automatic flash unit to a slave.
Bounce flash is just a technique where you press a button on your flash which lets it pivot so you can point it at the ceiling (or sometimes a wall) and bounce the light onto your subject instead of the flash being pointed right at your subject.
