    Yes, and there are also those that can achieve TTL, to put it bluntly, supporting TTL means that the flash is automatic, and you don't need to manually set the flash amount.

    But the lights you gave these two links are not good, they don't support TTL, and if you use them, you have to manually set the flash output to get the desired effect, which is very difficult and troublesome for beginners like you.

    Therefore, it is more convenient to recommend novices to buy one with TTL first, not to mention that the original Nikon is more expensive, presumably you are also looking for it because other manufacturers are cheap.

    If the budget is around 1000 yuan, we recommend you Nissin DI622 (Japanese), with TTL

    If the budget is around 500 yuan, it is recommended that you Yongnuo YN468 (boutique domestic product), also with TTL

    It is sold in large photographic equipment cities, so you can check it out on the Internet first.

    Hope it helps

    I didn't want this kind of problem.,But seeing the two people upstairs talking nonsense.,I really can't stand it.。。。

    I didn't choose this lamp because the index was small... Can't you tune to have a bird with a big index?

    Don't talk about the second floor, I didn't read your link or didn't understand it at all, so how to adjust the output of the lamp?

    I'll renew it, although I haven't used this thing for many years, but I still know a little bit.

    By the way, I'm a commercial photographer, and I used this kind of thing in my early years, but then I gradually used it because it didn't use it much.

    This can be used, but it is not recommended to buy, this thing is very difficult to make, you can't adjust the output, even if you do it manually, it is not easy to use, you can only use it as a light, and the aperture shutter should be counted. If you think the original lamp is too expensive, I recommend you to take a look at Yongnuo's flash, Yongnuo's lamp is hundreds of yuan, there are TTL, that is, the function is basically the same as the original factory, there are also manual, but Yongnuo's manual lamp is equivalent to the original lamp with manual, that is, the output can be adjusted, much better than the two you listed above, you can't call it a flash at all... The reason why I recommend this lamp to you is because I am a photographer buddy who sold the original lamp and bought two Yongnuo, and took it out to do a few small jobs, and the response was good.

    You ** search on the side to know, you don't necessarily have to yn468, those few yn can be considered, but if you often shoot the scene or something, of course ttl is better. If there's anything you don't understand, ask me again.

    It can be used, but TTL cannot be implemented, and the two indices you choose are too small, and the scene space is slightly larger!

    Here's how to force a flash on a Nikon D3100 DSLR camera:

    1. The key switch with flash in the picture is a key switch with lightning bolt sign, press the flash, it will automatically pop up.

    2. If you press the flash switch and the flash still doesn't turn on, it's because the flash card slot has aged due to a long time of idleness, you can use something like a pen or needle to pick up the reed of the flash card slot, and then touch the ON button of the flash.

    3. On the basic operation page, there are close-up, telephoto and other photography functions, we swipe to find: no flash, and then click to select. So the flash is turned off,Additional Information:

    Camera flash role:

    1. Strengthen the amount of **, which can ensure the clarity and brightness of the shooting picture in dim conditions.

    2. When shooting outdoors, the flash can also be used as an auxiliary light source to emphasize the color tone; Shooting under electric light,** it is easy to present a warm color of yellowish and red, and with the addition of flash, you can effectively adjust the color temperature to make the color of the subject correctly restored.

    3. Reflect the light, do not destroy the on-site environment of the subject, and add eye light; It can be partially filled with light, reducing or increasing the contrast, and instantly solidifying the subject.

    4. Highlight the prospects. Use flash to capture the background, because the shutter speed is high when shooting with flash, and the background outside the flash projection range will not be able to be represented due to insufficient **. The foreground is illuminated correctly due to the flash**, so that the foreground can stand out and the background interference can be eliminated.

    How the flash works:

    After the flash power supply is turned on, the switching characteristics of the transistor V1 are used to form intermittent oscillation, so that T1 obtains AC voltage in the primary and T1 is boosted, and the AC voltage in the second stage is greater than 300V. The AC voltage becomes the DC voltage after the half-wave rectification of the diode D1, which charges the main capacitor C2 and triggers the capacitor C3.

    When the charging voltage reaches about 70 of the rated voltage, the neon light in the indicating circuit will light up, indicating that the flash is in a normal flash waiting state. When the button AN is pressed, the trigger circuit generates an impulse voltage that excites an instantaneous high-voltage pulse at the T2 secondary stage.

    It ionizes the nitrogen in the xenon lamp and passes through the trigger pole of the xenon lamp. The electrical energy stored on the capacitor C2 is instantly converted into light energy by the discharge of the flash tube, completing a flash evaporation.

    There is a button with lightning in the position of the fuselage and the lens, flash mode, but sometimes in automatic transmission, although the flash bounces up, but does not flash, because the light at this time is enough, and the flash will be shooting to a certain extent**The effect is unnatural, if you feel that the light is not turned on when it is dark, you can try to reduce the shutter speed and increase**time.

    Press the flash button and the flash will flash when it is turned on.

    Generally, you only have to ask if you force it not to flash, and you can force it not to flash from M to P block.

    Or there is also a mandatory non-flash next to the auto.

    The Nikon D3300 is very forgiving, shooting in multiple contrasting scenes, and with D-lighting turned off, there are almost no overblown images, and the dark details are well preserved. Then Does the Nikon D3300 have a flash? Let's take a look!

    Nikon D3300 has a built-in flash.

    The question about whether Nikon D3300 has a flash will be answered in detail below. The Nikon D3300 eliminates the metal skeleton of the fuselage, making use of Nikon's. The unique technology, the use of a new material composed of carbon fiber and the monocoque construction make the camera housing form a compact box structure, and the smaller size and lighter construction make the camera extremely easy to carry while maintaining a high level of strength and durability.

    Nikon D3300 is not equipped with the current popular WiFi function, and still uses external wireless transmission accessories to achieve wireless functions. With the real-time framing function, the response of continuous focus is more sensitive, and the focusing speed has also been improved when used with the first set of lenses.

    Does Nikon D3300 support external flash

    The Nikon D3300 supports an external flash (ISO 518 shoe with safety lock and sync and data contacts).

    In response to the question of whether Nikon D3300 has a flash, Nikon D3300 uses a 24.16 million pixel APS-C format CMOS sensor, and adopts Nikon's common low-pass design, which covers ISO100-12800 sensitivity. The Nikon D3300 uses the new Expeed 3 processor, which allows the camera to process fairly fast images in the highest format, with really strong detail and good reframing of the frame.
