Does anyone use a canon 430EX flash?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:www.strobist.com ? What’s your plan for using the flash? That is, are you going to slap it ontop of your camera and shoot a bunch of deer-in-headlights TTL shots, or are you going to maybe get it off your camera and do something a little more interesting (Those shots—well, the first ones before I put the studio lights in the dance hall) were done with a Vivitar 285HV set to manual exposure (1/4 power), triggered via a sync cord, held in my left hand with a 1 quart takeout container held in my left hand.
