Insights on this second edition

Weve made five laps around the sun since I wrote the original Speedliters Handbook. In those five years, much has changed about the way I use Speedlites. Of course, Canons introduction of the 600EX-RT systemwith its built-in, two-way communicationwas reason enough to update the book. Yet, this new edition is so much more. Virtually every word, photo, and diagram in the first edition has been evaluated and either polished or cut.

The biggest change between the first and second editions is my shift away from automated camera and flash modes. Much of the first edition was based on using Aperture-priority (Av) on my camera and E-TTL on my Speedlite, which required acrobatic moves of exposure compensation and flash exposure compensation. By teaching hundreds of students face-to-face over these five years, Ive come to again believe that Manual mode, on both the camera and flash, is the best way to learn. I now share very clear guidelines on when to shoot in E-TTL and when to shoot in Manual mode.

Other additions/expansions in the second edition include:

Picture 2 Buttons-and-dials coverage of every current Canon Speedlite from the 600EX-RT down to the 90EX along with tips on using older Canon Speedlites and models from other manufacturers

Picture 3 A new chapter on maximizing the benefits of on-camera flash

Picture 4 Expanded portfolios of portraits made with a single Speedlite and multiple Speedlites

Picture 5 Complete updates to the chapters on light modifiers and gels

Picture 6 Greater emphasis on step-by-step workflows

Picture 7 Expanded discussions of how to use Canons camera-based LCD menu system for Speedlite control

Picture 8 And, of course, complete coverage of how to use the radio-enabled 600EX-RT system by itself and with earlier generations of Canon Speedlites.

Thanks are owed to so many. This book would not be going to press without the support of the following and so many others:

Picture 9Amy and our three lads: Tom, Vin and TonyThank you for serving as my models, assistants, and cheerleaders (even when you wanted to be somewhere else).

Picture 10Rudy WinstonMy technical guru at Canon USA. Your detailed answers to my multi-year stream of questions make me look much smarter than I am.

Picture 11Ted WaittMy long-suffering editor. Your admonition to tell the reader what you do, not everything you know still resonates every time I step up as a teacher.

Picture 12Gabe Biderman and my extended family at B&H PhotoBy sharing the word about my events and online videos, you have brought Speedliting to literally hundreds of thousands of shooters around the globe.

Picture 13Joe McNallyYou are still my sensei. I remain your humble and grateful student.

Picture 14Bobbi LaneFor sharing your joie de vie and letting me fib that you are my sister

Picture 15Zack AriasFor your evangelism that more-expensive gear does not necessarily make one a better photographer

Picture 17JP CaponigroFor continuing to inspire the artist within
