Slow Sync Technique Page

What is Slow Sync?
Slow Sync is when you have a sharp image however blurring surrounds it, often from previous movement.

How do I do it?

1. Use the black backdrop
2. Set up the red head behind a polystyrene board as the light is very bright and will be too bright
3. Also set up a polystyrene board in the direction of the camera so the light does not obstruct it
4. Get the model to stand in front of the camera and do a movement
5. Change the shutter speed to a long shutter speed (which will appear as a small number) and put the white balance on
6. Set the camera to rear curtain sync
7. Take a light reading to make sure the light is balanced
8. Take your photograph
