I took these with the *ist D, AF500 FTZ & a bed sheet pegged to the curtains behind the table :-)
<http://www.arach.net.au/~savage/Misc/IMGP5070.jpg> Flashed aim straight up at the ceiling (Sigma 18-55 f3.5-5.6) <http://www.arach.net.au/~savage/Misc/IMGP5084.jpg> <http://www.arach.net.au/~savage/Misc/IMGP5091.jpg> Flash aimed at the wall to the left. (FA100 Macro f2.8) I was using TTL & just kept dialing in compensation until the histogram & preview looked about right. Very un-scientific :-) Dave S.

I'm a really true newbie concerning flash photography. I can use flash but it is often very ugly lol. I need to take pictures of my gear for a quick little website for my studies. I took a couple with a lens placed on a white drawing A3 paper. Results are OK for a cheap hack but shadows from the integrated flash are problematic. I also own an Metz 40MZ2 but TTL is often unreliable with my D. Equipment used: * ist-D * SMCP 100/3.5 macro Any cheap advice/trick?
