Flash sync at 1/60 is inadequate for people in motion. Here's an example of why I try to avoid slow sync speeds: http://www.photolin.com/C-Image014.jpg This shot used flash sync of 1/60. Note the static objects are fine, but the moving prople are blurred. And they just happened to move a bit as I tripped the shutter. The flash was bounced off the cathedral ceiling. My other shots at higher sync speed were fine. However, there is one advantage of slow sync speeds. Check this out. You'll be amazed. Try to find the two areas of digital alteration - it's pretty obvious. And, no, there was no digital alteration of the baby. It's just got a transparent head, and I've got the photos to prove it! http://www.photolin.com/trans.jpg Happy Friday, a couple of days late. -- John Mustarde - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
