Trouble is, when I lower it I get a histogram that's only half full. This is despite 1/60th and widest aperture, iso 400 or 800 and ambient lights turned right up. It seems to me that the exposure needs as much flash as its asking for. The camera isn't automatically compensating for my minus flash EV and not boosting exposure another way via shooting settings. I just don't like too much flash falling on the face from too short a distance away. This is why I'm beginning to think about other options. Maybe I'm doing something wrong with my settings or technique? [/QUOTE]
