Hello John, Why do you say that? She is using an AF360FGZ which does have flash compensation on it. Instead of dialing it into the body, you dial it into the flash (like Nikon and others). I used to do as you described with my PZ-1p's and AF500FTZ and now do the same with the *istD and AF360FGZ.
I would agree that the amount of flash being used may be too weak. Tanya, you are aware that the *istD/AF360FGZ combo can do high speed flash synch above 1/180 sec aren't you? -- Best regards, Bruce Monday, March 22, 2004, 2:23:58 AM, you wrote: JF> If you are blowing out the background (or underexposing the face) then the JF> problem is that the flash isn't putting out enough light.
