Great to see the principles of flash photography illustrated. Sold me on the Nikon CLS system.

I have being a Nikonian for over the last 5 years and I am a very creative and intuitive person. The photography is just a hobby for me but I consider myself an advance amateur. I wanted to get this DVD because I was feelling that I could get more of my Nikon flashes that I was getting. To my surprise I was right, the creative lighting system has no limits. Your limits are your creativity and of course your money. But this DVD shows you in a very simple maner how to get the perfect picture out of a situation and improve your results as a photographer. Once again thank you Nikkon for another good product

Agree with the above reviews: Nauseating music. Many helpful ideas and approaches, the creativity was inspiring. However to be thorough,to understand CLS, until one is really familiar with the system, one has to meter. Problems with CLS were not gone into, for example when my D200 A mode all comps at 0, popup is set commander or even with flash by cable and SB800 set remote or manual, @1/250, set aper at f16, 11, 8, 5.6 all are within 0.02 EV acc to Sekonic L308S (closer than that since there is a consistent +.01 difference, impressive!) But trying f4.5 consistently meters 4.05, and f1.8 is similarly low. The ambilight is the same, so it would be nice to have replaced the infomerical wrapup with "OK, when we get an exposure problem here's my path to trace out the source on these immensely complex cameras." Rather than just dial in a flash foreground correction we need to understand why the meter differs from our settings. I didn't from this video. Automation is terrific but like liberty, needs eternal vigilance.

This is a MUST HAVE DVD for anyone who has any of the TTL Flashes produced by Nikon. Hi-Tech and a great tutorial. 2 1/2 hours long but moves fast. Could have been more especially the part from McNally. Now I just need more SB-900's. I did not know you could use the flip-flash on the camera as a master command module to drive other Nikon Flashes equipped to be driven as slaves. GREAT DVD. I would buy it again.
