Miops splash

So much fun with the Miops Splash. A device for managing waterdrops and controlling the camera or flash. With the supplied cable it is possible to control a flash unit with a standard 3.5mm jack. The godox ad200 and godox tt685 have both this connection so it was easy to setup for a first try.

One of my first watersplash with the miops splash. 2sec F11 iso200. To ftreeze the motion the flash was setup at 1/64 power. I had to trigger the miops on my phone within 2 sec of exposure.

After a lot of watching on youtube, reading and trying it’s getting better and better. I also found a cable to trigger the my Olympus omdem1m2 and canon eos 7d. They both have a 2.5mm jack for remote trigger. The Miops Splash also has a 2.5mm for controlling the camera. After this setup it was much easier. The trigger the miops with my phone also triggered the camera (and the flash trigger, godox x1t-o or -c) and the flash.

Olympus omdem1m2, bresser 60mm macro, F11 1/250 iso200. Trigger by phone app Miops Flash. Setup miops – 1e drop 75ms, 2e drop 94 after 85mm and camera trigger 100ms (tip: use flash rear curtain sync)
Miops app on android (it works the same on ios). Connection with bluetooth is very quick.

Some tips: try different heights, use xantham gom it will make the waterdrops better, use milk or food color, clean the miops splash after use. With clear water or x-rain, this is also perfect for the nozzle it releases the tension of the water drop. For flash use rear (2e) curtain. Also fun to use color gels and different backdrops
