OK, I hope this isn't a crazy question. But lately I've been getting into photographing birds, and I picked up one of those flash extenders, which not exactly sold on in terms of "does it really work". So 3 weeks ago, I was in a Starbucks getting a coffee and I happen to have my gear with me, and another photographer took notice and that started our discussion about my struggles with bird photography. I shared with him I was having a tough time with lighting, he recommended to get a bright flashlight. He recommended a flashlight brand called Nebo. I don't know squat about flashlights so I want digging around and found this review https://www.4wdtalk.com/nebo-flashlight-review/
So this thing is 12,000 lumens, that is bright! How in the world are you supposed to use this in conjunction with your shutter firing? Or do you just use a cable release and fire the light at the same time? Honestly, I'm still a bit confused with this guys suggestion to use a flashlight.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks gang.
