Sample photo analysis

No flash
In the lower shot, the subject and tree are clearly captured without using a flash. By employing a Speedlite at a reduced flash level, the photographer enlivened her facial expression with catchlight in her eyes. The flash also improved the photo by bringing out the leaves.
Fine-tuning of details via manual flash.
Speedlites provide a manual flash mode that allows adjustment of the lighting level. Precise manual adjustment is useful for highlighting details of the subject in the shade or adding catchlight in the eyes.

* Not supported by Speedlite 270EX.
