Hand Held
This is, without a doubt, the cheapest option. You’ve already got a hand, so why not put it to use? The idea is to hold your camera in one hand and your flash in the other. While this gets the job done, it can sometimes be a more daunting task than one would think.
First off, you’ve got both of your hands full. So, if you need to make an adjustment on either the camera or the flash, you’ll have to shuffle your equipment around. And when you’re holding several hundred dollars worth of equipment in your hands, the last thing you want to do is carelessly shuffle things around.
