    • Flash Exposure Mode (TTL or Manual)
    • TTL Flash exposure compensation
    • First / Second curtain / High Speed sync
    • Tilt and rotate the flash head (black foamy thing)
    • Zooming the flash
  • Two exposure settings – what look do you want?
    • Why use Manual for ambient?
      • In auto camera will try to balance
      • Where canon is a bit different (EC and FEC)
    • Ambient first , then flash
  • Direct v bounce flash
    • Hard flat light v soft light
    • Where do you want the light to come from (where to bounce)

The sections in bold italic will be practical –  working in small groups who have similar camera gear.
