Canon Camera Flash Cord
How do I setup my lighting kit to sync with my digital camera?
I just bought a strobe and softbox kit, how do I get it to sync with my Canon EOS digital rebel xt? I will be taking photos at a club tomorrow night and will be taking pictures. I will need the continuous light on from the softbox and I tested it this morning – but I am having trouble adjusting my camera settings and the strobe settings. How do I do it? I also purchased a hot shoe safe sync from WEIN that supposedly works with my camera to put on the hot shoe and sync with the PC cord that goes with the strobe. It seems to only work when I use my other external flash though (canon speedlite 430) because that flash triggers the strobes. I dont even know if the WEIN hot shoe sync works.
1) Set the strobe where it lights the subject as you desire. Strobe should be set to trigger with twe cable, not with the cell, because it will fire to ANY flash, not only yours.
2) Check strobe exposure AND also ambient light exposure, decide about strobe and ambient balance (which is going to be used as fill, which as main or effect light)
Take on consideration if your subject moves to/from strobe and take exposure measures on several points, take notes about this.
3) Set your camera to manual and adjust speed and aperture
4) Put the Wein safe sync on your camera and connect to the strobe. The Wein sure sync asures that trigger voltage is less than 5 volts. It should work with the hot shoe
5) Test camera-strobe connection
6) Test exposure
7) Shoot. use your notes to adjust aperture if subject moves away or gets near to strobe. Do this only if you can not check exposure again.
Caring For Your Camera
Whether you own a digital camera or an SLR camera – you must realise that each one has particular user issues that may arise from time to time. The problems may be identical or varying, according to the nature of the device.
For example, both an SLR camera and a digital camera may show signs of low battery in place. While the reel camera won’t flash properly, the digital camera would keep on turning off, every few seconds. While replacement of batteries is a trivial issue that you can yourself take care of, there can be more serious issues that you must show to a digital camera repairs service or other camera repairs service only.
As a matter of good care, it is always advisable never to run your camera on low battery. Always install your camera with good quality batteries and rechargeable batteries must always be preferred.
Secondly, always keep your camera well wrapped in plastic when exposed to sand, water and such external factors. These external factors can turn your camera useless if exposed to over a period of time. You may not realise but a single grain of sand is sufficient to render your camera useless.
Also, always use the given cords and cables into your digital camera and do not use power supply of another brand of camera. Trying to fit a cable or cord forcibly is a dangerous thing to even try. Not to mention, go to a Canon camera repairs shop if it’s a Canon camera.
It’s ideal for the long life of the camera to go to the most proficient camera repair service provider only. For example, you may visit www.cameraservicecentre.powerup.com.au for absolutely expert camera repair services. The site is also a valuable resource for information on camera repair tips.
