[QUOTE="Fortkentdad, post: 602836, member: 24285"] Found a review on line that explained that in flash mode (which he said must be done in Manual as I discovered) but the flash is 'about twice the light" as the constant. Good to know. The review is here: [URL]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EKw45qxawAI[/URL] Tried your suggestion of ISO 100 - 1/250 and F16 (My D610 sync is 1/200 but put tried it anyway - seemed to work at 250).

[ATTACH=CONFIG]242706._xfImport[/ATTACH] proximity matters - this one shot closer - maybe 3" away - at your F16, 250 ISO 100. Back off I had to up the ISO to 400 and slow the shutter [ATTACH=CONFIG]242707._xfImport[/ATTACH] So if you need those settings, unless you are shooting really close, this is not the light for you.
