how bout if i set it to smaller image size...will it reduce the noise?

albert, no it wasnt a dark room. Errr, u hv my fb right? I posted a pic recently there, with the michael jordan cutout under the studio lights. Think its still in my profile's mobile upload pics

get everything...from the stofen diffuser,bounce card and big bounce card...

that way, ANY situation of light also u can have a solution for it... gary fong's whale-tail aka toilet bowl, stofen, the tau fu fah bowl, bounce cards..

Best solution is to buy 4 or 5 more flash la. Do like Joe McNally. When in doubt just keep adding more wireless flash n blast it all over the place.

not sure about the noise issue, but overall image quality should drop theoretically, due to image compression - which compression should include the actual image + noise. so i think the noise would be 'fused' together with the actual image data, muddling the output color. that is why by shooting raw, there isnt a choice for you to choose what image size you want, it always records at the sensor's native resolution.

Kantoi lor, means need fork out few more hundreds for extra batteries liao.

i thought the new firmware for NEX prolongs the battery life a bit?

very hard.....>.<...just now i direct point my flash at my subject..come out underlit also...how ah..... i using 1/160 speed and F2.2...iso 200...indoor..at my room..

1/160 is too fast la...depends how far is ur model also..

shutter too fast for iso 200... i using 1/100 also needs iso 800 (indoor cases)

^
^
^Lawl, ISO too low la.
Use at least 640 above indoor, unless you are equipped with studio flash.
