Hello Tanya, Well, that certainly changes things. The AF360FGZ is about the only flash right now that will allow high speed flash synch and adjustable compensation for the flash output.
Your other flashes are going to make it slower to work with - you really need a more versatile backup - either another 360 or some other flash that gives you more control of automatic and manual settings. I'm with you on sticking to the digital solution and working around the problem. There have been some good suggestions concerning light modification (diffusers, reflectors) that should be looked into. Congrats on getting the shoot! -- Best regards, Bruce Monday, March 22, 2004, 5:22:48 AM, you wrote: TMP> Hi everyone, TMP> Thanks so much for advice and suggestions... >Snip< TMP> Next to Bruce - I probably should have explained a little better.
