Explanation:
"Le "bounce flash" s'emploie utilement pour rendre une ambiance réaliste. L'exposition est T.T.L, automatique ou manuelle. Le flash est tenu à bout de bras, fixé sur un pied ou autre support.
La distance flash sujet sera calculée ou mesurée si l'écartement du flash par rapport au boîtier est importante.
La distance flash sujet est égale à la racine carrée de la distance film sujet (mise au point) au carré plus la distance d'écartement flash/boîtier au carré."
