- Daniel Linnet's tips on White Balance and Speedlite Gels
-
All light sources have a colour temperature or cast. The colour temperature of a Speedlite is made to closely resemble daylight, although a touch cooler.
Two Speedlites placed right and left to the camera to fill in the shadows at the front and side of the car (not facing the sun). Both flashes are gelled warm to match the colour of the afternoon sun.
You will notice that your new 600EX Speedlite came with a pack of two warming gels and a holder that fits over the front of the flash.
Single off-camera Speedlite gelled warm to mimic the colour of sunset.
