when u get the Di622, u wont be complaining the weight, but how imbalance it is, lol  laugh.gif
try hanging on your neck n your D3000 will face downwards with the flash protruding frontwards  laugh.gif

indeed! Di622's size can fight sb900... but the build quality is very plasticky, still a bit lighter than sb900 tongue.gif

just press the mode button then it will become manual mode. the indicator will illuminate on the power bar. keep pressing mode button to adjust the power =D

@isepunye
i think the ROL effect is nice until the 4th stage only. after that the ground seems full with mist/smoke and 1st sight tells me it's very unnatural. Well it's just me, my 0.02 cent...

Added on April 3, 2010, 4:08 pmi got crazy question...

i'm too cheap to buy an external flash. is there a way for me to do this:

1) somehow connect my nikon D40 with my LX3
2) when i press the D40 shutter, the LX3 will fire the built-in flash wahaha

is it possible?? tongue.gif juz trying my luck
*
dont think LX3 can be your slave =D better save for a cheap nissin di622 or aim sb900 straight haha

Hmm i tried d40 with 70-200VR I combination, heavy siao and difficult to hold. Wan change ISO settings also cant, cuz need 2 hands to hold the body but lens too heavy. Must need a grip XD

Anyway if you can afford a 7k lens u should be able to get a BG =D

Not that it's not working, it's that the af assist light is illuminating a bit upper than the center. means u focus the object but the light is above the object.

how to prevent the flash go into sleep mode ? . altho it is save batteries , but kinda distractive

you mean nissin di622? i don't think there's a way to prevent it... but to wake it up from sleep just press the shutter button halfway, not difficult and hassle wad..
