is there a recommended brand for pop flash diffuser?
i'm using d3100+di622 for off camera flash. hence, the di622 is in slave mode and it is triggered by my pop flash.
i want to soften the harsh flash from the pop up.

Added on December 28, 2010, 11:14 amor should i just DIY with cheap materials ..like cloth ..hehe. any recomendation?

Try to lower the pop up flash power to the lowest.

thanks celciuz......that means I can take approx. 5 pix without memory card.....so there is nothing to worry about rite

but then why my pix count didn't even drop when i take pix.......it stay at 1.0k all the time......is this the limit D90 can shows in LCD......I mean the max D90 can shows in its LCD is 1.0k while in actual I can shot more than 1k.......and the number will only start to drop when the remaining size can occupy less than 1k pix??

You are right about the limit. it can shows only 3 digits. Thus, anything above 999, it will show 1.0k, 1.1k etc.
No worry, ur cam just work as it is. whistling.gif

Added on January 14, 2011, 12:24 pmAnybody playing around with the built in flash commander set to -- with juz the speedlight illuminating the subject? I've set to --, but it seems the pop up flash still impacts the end result of the subject lighting(lights the subject from front when i place my slave speedlight on the left). Anybody here can share some experience?  icon_question.gif  blush.gif

Hi, when i set the internal flash commander to --, the output of the internal flash didn't lit my object.
Please see here -> http://img148.imageshack.us/img148/6659/remoteflash.jpg
The easiest way to test whether it lit ur object by setting the internal flash commander to --, then, snap without the external remote flash. You should see ur flash did flashed but, ur pic is w/o flash light.

It will affect the image if you're close enough to the subject. That is why I bought radio triggers for usage biggrin.gif.

I noticed that when I wanna take a close shot of my big photoframe, I use wireless flash light from top, but can see the mirror reflects light from the front, which means the body flash does affect the final image, so Nikon bullshit in the menu book saying won't affect the final outcome..... iirc the aperture does affect the preflash of the body on the picture
Something interesting to know. Maybe we can sent the image taken to Nikon for analysis. See what their explaination. hmm.gif

I would suggest if you don't want such issue got 2 choices,

1. Get those radio triggers (no TTL)
2. Want TTL? Get SU800 commander unit.
3. Want radio + TTL? Get PW or RP.
You forgot about the FX badge tongue.gif.

Yeah, that will works better. Will see what NSC reply and report to u guys.

Wow.... waiting for ur wonderful update!! Mayb u could highlight how small the aperture need to be in order to totally eliminate the pre flash even at close distance, coz iirc the aperture+iso matters a lot.

I did provide sample situation that u guys talking about jst now. Let see what they going to advise us on it. icon_rolleyes.gif

Guys, after googling about the flash issue, we need this.

Nikon SG-31R Replacement IR Panel for the Built-in Flash on the D200, D70s or D70 Digital Cameras

Description
The SG-3IR IR Panel for Built-in Flash prevents pre-flash light from built-in Speedlight (D200, D70s or D70) from influencing exposures in extreme close-up situations.
