Hi Guys,
Last weekend I took some pics at a 40th wedding anniversary - not proffesionally of course, but just doing my bit because I am friends with the couple.
Anyways, not having used a flash before (all my stuff is outdoors) I was surprised just how powerful the flash is. Indoors at a low level ceiling say 10 feet high the flash lit up everything in the pics. Not that I'm complaining, but it would have been better if the flash had calmed down a bit.
Used on regular TTL it turned indoors into outdoors and I was wondering if anyone had some ideas into diffusing it down so as to give me a tad softer light.
I aimed the flash high with the regular diffuser attachment that came with it but it still could of used lowering a bit more.
I wouldn't say the pics were over exposed, just that everything as well as who I was taking the pics of, were as if it was daylight.
Gentler is the word I'm looking for but I guess you know what I mean...
Any advice guys?
