Light's important !

Hey APF !
Since my lense lust is scheduled sometime in the early summer I spendt my money on something else I've been craving. A second flash :-D

So I went down today (a hour ago) and bought a SB600! Can't wait to use a dual combo..
I'll go play now

Yeah, that's too bad... But I guess you'll get the job done with Canon aswell

awesome Alex. I picked up an sb-600 a while back also. Pretty neat stuff.

 

[Obliviou$]

Nice hir0!

Nothing serious, just testing light.
I'm getting more dynamics on my macro work now, that's for sure.

Someone call the exorcist! That bear is obviously possessed, haha.

Nice new addition to your arsenal.

At least two remote speedflashes are good to have. I'm tickled with having two SB800. I'll probably end up with two more befor eI'm done.

Alex, with your creativity, you should have at least eight.

I admire your choice flashes (I have SB800 & SB600 too ). My newest toy is waiting at the post office for me to pick it up - an SC-28 lead so I can use them both off camera. The poor fishes are going to see so many flashing lights they will get headaches! :badgrin:

Haha :-D
Looking forward getting creative with it!
Btw, Alan, you are able using both flashes of camera using the D70 as a master!
Or doesn't it give the right exposure measures?


I do like the smooth macro lighting !

It may be me, but I didn't get decent results with fish photography using the built-in flash as the master. It may have been that I didn't set the sensors up properly or I didn't get the flash channels right. I also found the fishes didn't like the pre-flashes. The SB800 works fine as the master, but I don't want to use it on-camera all the time. I think the cord should solve these problems.
