Yes, the "candids" are done with portable strobes in most cases, but that did not sound like what he original poster was asking about.

I stand by my reply. His post makes no sense. You cant really do studio strobes at weddings and receptions. His "teachers" must be the stupid jerks.....

I guess it's possible but VERY unlikely that many people would be working that way for a wedding/reception. In my experince, no matter how much I warn/persuede the bride/groom in advance, the wedding day is always hectic/fast paced and that type of slow deliberate photography is out of the question. I always used non-TTL autoflash, Fuji NPH, and one stop over (iso 200) and got nice results. To each his own I guess....
You stupid, bombastic jerk. Here is the original post that I was replying to.
"Hi All,
I'm currently doing a course in wedding photography. One of the things that came up and which I forgot to ask was: we were told that the studio lights had been set for f/11 and that we should set our cameras to f/8, why is this so?
Thanks, Feroze"
Get it? He's talking about stdio lights. As in STUDIO LIGHTS!!!! Did your mother have any children that developed intelligence?
