[QUOTE="Don Kuykendall_RIP, post: 174834, member: 6277"] I have worked extensively with umbrellas and truly love the results BUT that is not what I am after now. I am looking for a totally mobile, fast way of shooting outdoors using a single flash. Bounce is great and I use it indoors now and the white pop-up is always used. I figured that out the first time I shot. I have used the diffuser that is built in outdoors and indoors and I like the softness it gives too. Now on to outdoors where there is nothing to bounce off of and no time to set up multiple flash/umbrella systems. To give you a little background as to what I am doing. This is not for a specific shoot. This it to study and learn each aspect of flash shooting starting with the base unit and working my way up. I feel if you do this you will always have the knowledge to get the best shot that you can no matter what you have with you at the time. Like recently I have been shooting in very low light and not using a tripod just to see how far I could go with the camera. Now I know the limits there. If I need to do it I now know what to expect. Like this weekend I was not planning to shooting at all other than a few candid shots while visiting my 87 year old mom. My niece was visiting and my mom insisted I go take some pictures of my niece's children so being the good son I said yes. Packed them in the car and went downtown and shot them. I never leave home without my LowePro Backpack and it does have my flash in it. Camera, Lens and Flash. IK was pretty pleased with the results but would like to see if they can be better.
