I break down what Exposure Simulation is, why it matters in the studio environment, and why you need to turn it off while using strobe lighting. It catches out both new & experienced photographers who enter the studio for the first time after buying a mirrorless camera.

Buying something to do all the heavy lifting for you is a sure fire way to complacency, arrogance, and ignorance. So you don't have the knowledge yet to know whether it's user error or the equipment isn't good enough? Good! You will strive to learn answers. You will end up understanding equipment better and be a better photographer!

If you have no experience with studio photography, you may wonder how do you magically fire the lights? And why is it so important to be in control in the studio and not let your camera (or lights) make the decisions for you? In this blog, I'll tell you about both these things!
