Which is better, led fill light or flash?

Photography is painting with light and shadow, and how to effectively control the light source is a compulsory course for photography enthusiasts. In addition to the traditional flash, today’s fill light equipment includes more portable handheld LED fill lights. Compared with the flash, the LED fill light is more simple and convenient to operate. For the novice shooting, it is a good equipment for learning to master the lighting.

What is the difference between led fill light and flash?
①From the perspective of the naked eye, the LED fill light is a constant light, which is a continuous and uninterrupted light source. The flash can emit a strong light in a very short time to play an instant fill light effect;
②In terms of appearance, the led is composed of rows of lamp beads, which is a large luminous matrix, and the light bulb of the flash has only one lamp tube;
③ In terms of the duration of shooting, the LED fill light is a constant-on photography light, and it will stay on until the power is out. Its advantages are high light efficiency, low voltage, small size, long life, adjustable color temperature and brightness, rechargeable, power bank and other characteristics, and are rapidly popularized.
The flash is instantaneous, only the moment of shooting will be blingbling. At the same time, you have to learn what 1/128 and 1/1 output power mean, you have to learn what is the meaning of jump flash, first-curtain/rear-curtain synchronization, and you have to learn to test before shooting What does light mean, you have to predict the light effect in advance, and you have to test the shooting. When shooting, you also need to consider the public condemnation of the flash, and when shooting children, usually children can’t stand the flash. When taking pictures of adults, the model will feel sore eyes in a short while.
④ In terms of the illuminating area, although the LED fill light has a relatively large light-emitting matrix, the irradiation area and brightness of the LED fill light are limited, so the larger the flat panel with the LED light, the more lamp beads, the more Liang Yi said that the brightness of LEDs is related to something called “lumens”. This thing called “lumen” is actually a unit of luminous flux. The greater the lumen, the brighter the light, and it is continuous. The brightness of the flash, if calculated in an instant, is actually much brighter than the LED, and the irradiation area is also much larger. This is due to the different structures of the two lamps.
