I don’t understand how using a flash can freeze motion better than ambient light. In the end, isn’t it all just light hitting the sensor?
I don’t understand why it would do this. I mean it’s not necessarily like the camera knows and is like “Oh they’re using flash, I’ll be nice and give them a sharper picture’. I mean obviously they don’t think like that, but all in all it’s light luminating the subject and hitting the sensor, why does something like the source of the light affect how much motion can appear in your image?
In: Technology
I think the camera does know? Or rather, you’re able to use a shorter exposure time since the light is more intense, and thus less chance for blurriness. When you have ambient light only, the exposure has to be a tick longer which allows for movement to be “captured” as blurriness.
