Hi Steve Yes, there would be people in the shots like on most events or concerts or in dance halls. I can not use a tripod therefore, only a very fast film and the 2.8 aperture would possible help shooting without flash. I will try this afternoon (in 2 hours;-) to shot at a puppet theater and would like to make overview shots of the children audience together with that marionettes on stage.
So hurry up if you got that important advice ;-) thanks Markus >>-----Original Message----- >>From: Steve Larson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >>Sent: Saturday, July 09, 2005 2:01 PM >>To: [email protected] >>Subject: Re: How-to use flash with lenses wider than 28mm >> >> >>Hi, you can try bouncing, but I think you will still get the >>tunnel effect. >>Are there >>going to be people in the shots?
