[QUOTE="rocketman122, post: 429812, member: 14443"] many hobbyists/amateurs/enthusiasts are scared to learn flash. it can get technical. the "im a natural light shooter" is just an excuse not to learn flash. photography is about light. if you dont learn flash and how to control it, youre learning part of photography. I believe to be a great photographer, you need to know flash. not only have an image in mind but knowing how to use flash to acheive the exact look u wanted. flash doesnt mean not natural. learning how to blend ambient light with flash is a true art form. after time, your eyes become so fast to actually see how the flash is falling/hitting the subject. bravo for taking this important step. understanding lighting ratio and controlling the quality of the light is also important. next step is light stands and some diffusion equipment for studio work. just a recommendation but a great softbox I own and used a few times. its fast and diffuses light very nicely. no need to spend a lot for a softbox today.
