[QUOTE="DaveW, post: 57550, member: 7183"] Ok Guys I must be doing something wrong here. I put the flash off camera on a light stand and through a 2 foot by 2 foot softbox. I set the camera to commander mode -- to use the pop up flash to trigger the off camera flash. I then set the power of the flash to 1/128 in that same menu. I'm using matrix and on manual mode M on camera. It still seems to bright to me. I didn't upload the photo to computer, just looked at it on the camera's lcd. Do I need to diffuse it even more? Like putting a sheet over the softbox? This flash is one powerful beast. You have to remember that I am a non flash user, so I'm easily impressed. But I am looking for a softer light. By the way, the room was lit by a small table lamp, a fairly large room, but it does have white walls if that has something to do with it. [/QUOTE]
