Well, since I got the wireless mode to work, I returned to my original mission: Using the 560 flash high atop the stroboframe with an Omnibouce 80/20 reflector. (That's a reflector with holes in it that directs 80% of the light off the reflector and 20% off atypical 8 foot ceiling. ) I used it with and without the on-camera flash. The first pic here is with the on-camera (you can see the double catch lights). The second is without the on-camera. With the on-camera, you essentially have three light sources. I can alter the intensity of the 560 by changing teh zoom setting, the angle of the flash head and the height of the stroboframe bracket. (It's the dead-serious one -- I think they call it 2500 pro -- with height adjustment and camera flip.) I have to experiment. But I think this might be a nice setup for on-camera work, such as weddings and events. By the way, Grace was pretending that she was making an omelet. When I make one for her I use a hand mixer in a beaker. She had some orange juice in a thermos. She made a mess, and I got scolded:-)). This was a nice conclusion to what has been a weekend from hell with rampant flu throughout the house and even an ambulance trip to the hospital for 91-year-old mom (who is a back home and okay now). But that's another story. Here's Gracie! http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=5643208&size=lg http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=5643196&size=lg
