  I have watched the Full DVD many, many times and I still found myself watching the whole of this chapter. The full DVD gave me a formula that I use everytime I shoot with OCF and it works. Up til then it was very hit and miss!

  Ditto Sean
  I met Damien at SWPP earlier this year and I asked for a lighting DVD which showed several set ups with OCF.
  Within seconds he put this DVD in my hands, I thought I was wishing for something special, but he had the very thing I was after.
  Brilliant DVD, great for creative ideas. I’ve watched it several items as well, due for another viewing I think!

  Thank you Sean,

  I put 18 months of research into breaking down the complexities of off camera flash and popped it all in a DVD. I’m glad that effort gets your seal of approval and I’m proud to have done it. Your support is very much appreciated.

  Kindest regards,

  Damien.

  Great Video, can you ellaborate a bit more on how the f/10, 1/200s came about (was it purely from the ambient?). How did the flash power contribute to this setting?

  Now that was not what I expected! ‘Dingle’ what a great idea!

  Is the DVD full of other useful tips like this? I feel a purchase coming on….

  Definitely the best photography training DVD that I have ever watched (and I’ve seen a lot!!). Can’t wait for the next one!

  Hi Kent,
  On the DVD I explain how my formula works and how to implement it. I use 1/200th because it is the highest flash sync speed although it is not important to use this setting with Pocket Wizards or Radio Poppers. The f/10 was chosen to set the level of the shadow detail. Again this is explained fully in the 2½ hour video production. The Speedlight was in TTL mode. I hope this helps,

  Damien.

  Hi Rob, the DVD is packed with the ‘not obvious’ but easy to implement ways of creating magic lighting using Speedlights. You can download it here in HD

  Thanks, Damien.

  Hi Chris,

  Thank you for your kind words. My next DVD is due out mid December so there will not be too long to wait now. It is a DVD about shooting portraits in the studio or village hall or just about anywhere you can put a background up. It concentrates on lighting, posing and composition.

  Watch this space, Damien.
