Hi everyone,
Since I'm stuck indoors on heavy quarantine and nothing will be open for rental in the immediate future, I was wondering if someone could talk me through using flash with an EVF camera. I'm looking at the Z and GFX systems right now. My 2 main scenarios are as follows.
1) Studio at F8, kill all ambient, shooting at regular shutter speeds. Does it compensate for the flash settings? Obviously this is a non issue with an OVF. If it does compensate, is it only when a trigger is attached or when the camera decides "these must be flash settings"? I'm assuming you don't just see a black screen.
2) Low shutter speed continuous with hot lights, anywhere between 1/50 and a full second. The light is quite low in the room, image will be intentionally soft. Think Sarah Moon type stuff. What is the EVF doing at F2 1/4 sec ISO100 in a dark room?
Nearly 100% of my work is studio based. Perhaps in this instance SLRs are still the way to go. I'll rent a system of course but since i don't have anything on the books and the shops are shut anyway, thought I might get some opinions.
Also I have a lot of free time and there's only so long i can stare at photoshop. If only I could print here!
Greetings from Australia.
