[QUOTE="ideacipher, post: 323676, member: 11382"] I've had the SB600 for quite a while now but for the most part only used it rarely to bounce off of walls or the ceiling mounted on camera. Recently I started to play around with syncing the body with the flash and seeing what I can get using TTL settings. I will start manual flash settings once I have something to work off of. On a budget but not so much that I want to learn on one system and need to move to another costing the same or triple or more. I'm as green as they come when it comes to creative lighting. I've watched a few vids and read a couple of books on flash photography but no real work with flashl. I bought faster lenses for that reason (well that and SDOF) Using only the abilities of the camera and flash. Would a softbox or umbrella be better for a single option to work off of? Indoor portraits. I'm not looking for spot on professional just something close to get me on the right track to work with. I'm wondering if one option is going to work with the on camera remote trigger while the other will not. Many thanks in advance [/QUOTE]
