I tried a few weeks ago,puting a Kleenex over the 285HV.Even at f2.8 it was very underexposed and no details at 20'.I think in my dark arena the Omni might be to much cut,however in the arean that is better lit,windows on north/south and on roof,it might act as more a fill flash.That might help to keep the brighter colours on the fences from washing out some what. I shoot in the dark arena 1/500 at f 3.5/4 and the light arean at 1/500 at f 3.2/3.5 depending if the sun is out. Dark about 20',light about 30-40' from the riders. I can practise shoot in the dark arena any time,so this might be the time to experiment. Dave
