Need some info on doing a wet hair flip photo

12 years 8 months ago #119017 by Foxy Girl
Anyone happen to know what camera settings for doing a wet hair flip shot? What should the shutter speed and exposure be set at. Would a fill flash be needed?

Really thanks for the help.

:)

Always found this type of shot to be challenging when I was shooting a band with a female singer. Usually set for fill flash and max sync speed to freeze the action. Sorry that I don't have one scanned in for an example

Use strobes (or flash).

I tried this once using sequential shooting in sunlight.






A underwater point and shoot camera was used...

These were the last two photos before the camera opened up a seal and drowned. The post mortem revealed it was likely a suicide... :rofl:

I've done one of these shots before, I have found during sunlight a shutter of 1/200 to 1/250 second with ISO set at 200 and aperture I want to say was around f/11. You might need to mess around with those settings, but that should get you started.
