Hi! The holidays are coming near and I'm having a couple of gigs at Galia's class. One involved shooting the general rehearsal of the little musical they've been making. Given the fact that the hall was empty I could shoot as I pleased. So I also shot a number of shots from the distance.
My flash is Metz 40 MZ-2 which is a good flash. In particular it auto-zooms as per the actual focal length taking into account the crop factor of the camera. However, the ceiling of the hall wasn't the ideal surface for bouncing and the distance (10m and upwards) was too much to play the bounce game. So I ended up with many properly exposed shots but with this ugly shadow behind everyone and everything. Is there a way to at least make these shadows less prominent during the shoot? I reckon the likes of diffuser are necessary but I'd rather ask someone who has direct experience with this, as I am total klutz to all things flash. Thanks. -- Boris -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
