I have not
run into the situation where a subject blinks on EVERY shot. We all have our techniques to eliminate this
for the occasional blinker, but in a recent family shoot one of the kids
blinked on EVERY shot. After running
through all the workarounds I remembered an article about this.
I was
shooting with three Canon 600EX-RT flashes, two of which were in ETTL mode. Could the pre-flash of the ETTL be causing
him to blink? Well, after moving them to
a manual mode and metering for the right output, the blinking went away.
Sure enough
the pre-flash was causing the blink.
Normally I can get around this, but this one had me stumped until I
remembered the article I read a few years ago.
Enjoy.
