Hi Tan: just got back to read about your problem. If you haven't resolved
it by the time you need to go to the coast, and it helps, my AF330FTZ is
yours for as long as you want it.

Sure ... nothing wrong with that, either.

Hello Tanya,
#7 - I'm not sure if you are totally understanding the high speed synch
issue. P-TTL or TTL for that matter don't rely on camera modes
(AV, TV, P, M), they rely on the amount of light coming into the
camera. So you can set the camera manually if you choose and let the
flash fire
Tanya,
forgot to mention that along with the flash itself, the camera's flash setting needs
to be set to W
HS - wireless and high speed. This is done by repeatedly pressing the
flash button until the two symbols show up.

Best regards,
Bruce

Hi Tan
Sounds like picking up a ND2 and/or an ND4 filter would be a good idea. If
necessary just get the filter in the largest filter size you use and get
step up rings for the other filter sizes. Also, if you already have it a
polarizer filter is good for 2-3 stops, so your F-16 turns into F-5.6
for something this important, i think best to have a friend as a temporary
assistant to take care of this chore.

Well, you've got your hands full. Here's a few thoughts to kick around. You have to do
something to control the light to keep the tonal range within the dynamic range of
your recoring media (digital or film). If you don't there will be no such thing as
proper exposure. Two things to use to do
Tan,
After 6 pages of the thumbnails being unusually large (in file size) they
settled down to around 2kb, so I've been able to breeze through the whole
collection of thumbs looking for the rotten exposures. But nothing was as
bad as you suggested, instead I simply found some of the images showed

Hello John,
Why do you say that? She is using an AF360FGZ which does have flash
compensation on it. Instead of dialing it into the body, you dial it
into the flash (like Nikon and others). I used to do as you described
with my PZ-1p's and AF500FTZ and now do the same with the *istD and

Hello Tanya,
Well, that certainly changes things. The AF360FGZ is about the only
flash right now that will allow high speed flash synch and adjustable
compensation for the flash output.
Your other flashes are going to make it slower to work with - you
really need a more versatile backup -

I do not have a digital camera, so I can only speak in generalities. But digital
to my understanding is much like slide film. Blown highlights are unrecoverable.
You might try setting exposure compensation to underexpose 1/2 to 2 stops
depending on the brightness of those highlights. I might
If there is an issue with sensors and meters picking up
ambient light and affecting a shot (too dark or washed out)
then using a flash in manual mode may be the easiest option.
For candids where you're working with a consistent
distance from the subject this can work.
If you have a high-output

for the flash problem, i think yours was underpowered for the lighting

Hi Tan
repeat this mantra histograms, histograms
Seriously use your histograms often to make sure you're not clipping =
highlights try to stay away or modify very contrasty lighting and =
bracket -1 and -2 ev. Shoot raw for the 16 bit color as it will help =
with smoother tonal transitions.
