選擇閃燈的注意事項＋我的閃燈配置

如果你想使用 TG 相機，拍攝效果不錯的微距照片，外部光源是必須的。如果你想保持輕便的裝備，建議選擇最低 1000 流明（推薦 1500 流明）的手電筒。只要有足夠的練習和投入，你完全可以用手電筒拍出非常不錯的照片！然而，根據拍攝主題和水下環境條件，手電筒的光可能顯得不足。例如，你可能在嘗試保持足夠的景深時，缺乏足夠的光線或者照片容易變得模糊。這就是為什麼會需要使用閃燈！

🔍為什麼要使用閃燈？

閃燈為大多數水下拍攝主題提供了充足的光線。不同的閃燈有著不同的光線輸出強度。例如，小型閃燈的光可能不如大型、更強力的閃燈照得遠。（即使是最強大的閃燈，水下光線的有效範圍也通常只有 1-2 米。）這對近距離拍攝影響不大，但如果你計劃使用閃燈進行廣角攝影或拍攝魚類肖像，選擇更大、更強的閃燈可能會更合適！

這樣的雙閃燈配置讓我能更靈活地調整光線，特別是在拍攝較大的主題或角度難橋的情況下。

此外，我也會根據不同的拍攝需求，使用其他設備：

Miniflash 2 + Snoot（束光鏡）：非常適合創意光影效果，突顯微距主體的細節。
帶有彩光的攝影燈：為畫面增添鮮豔的色彩，特別適合拍攝視頻或需要恆定光線的場景。

根據拍攝主題和當時條件，我會選擇最適合的配置。

💡選擇閃燈時需要考慮的事項

大小與功能：

小型閃燈重量輕且易於操作。然而，它們通常只支持 TTL（自動）拍攝模式，而較大的閃燈則通常同時支持 TTL 和手動拍攝模式。有些閃燈還內建對焦燈，這能簡化你的設備配置，減少額外設備的需求。

創作與自由度：

閃燈能讓你的相機發揮到極限。例如，你可以使用狹窄光圈（例如 F9–F18）來獲得更大的景深，同時保持高速快門，減少模糊的可能性。

希望這篇文章能幫助你更清楚地了解如何選擇適合自己的光源設備。

Introduction to Flashlights and Strobes Favored by Instructors

Taking usable macro photos with your TG camera almost always requires some kind of external light. If you're aiming for a lightweight setup, a flashlight with at least 1000 lumens (though 1500 lumens is recommended) can be sufficient. With enough practice and dedication, you can capture certain types of photos quite well with just a flashlight!

However, depending on your subject and the water conditions, flashlights can be limiting. For instance, you might struggle to get enough light while maintaining a good depth of field, or your photos might turn out blurry.

This is where strobes come in!

Why Choose a Strobe?

A strobe provides more than enough light for most underwater photography subjects.

Different strobes offer varying levels of light output strength. For example, smaller strobes might not illuminate as far as larger, more powerful strobes. (Even the most powerful strobes typically only reach about 1–2 meters underwater.)

For macro photography, this limited range doesn’t affect close-up shots much. However, if you plan to use your strobe for wide-angle photography or fish portraits, a larger, more powerful strobe might be the better option.

My Equipment Setup

Here’s what I use for my underwater photography:

I switch between these setups depending on the subject and conditions to get the best results!

Things to Consider When Choosing a Strobe

Size and Features: Compact strobes are lightweight and easy to manage. However, they typically support only TTL (automatic) shooting, while larger strobes often include both TTL and manual shooting modes. Some strobes also have built-in focus lights, which help simplify your setup by reducing the need for extra equipment.

Creative Freedom:A strobe allows you to push your camera to its limits. For example, you can use a narrow aperture (e.g., F9–F18) for a wider depth of field while maintaining a fast shutter speed to minimize blur.
