got try also..still not well lit..and got tried with bounce card as well..and hor, i tried to switch my a550 to AUTO mode and F42 in AUTO mode...it is the same..not well lit..whereas the pop up flash just do it nicely..how come?

so exp..lol..later on i will visit service center..but not now..tomorrow celebrate valentine need use..
okok..thanks for info..

btw, all sifus..i need your help..having prob to learn flash..

just now i tried about 1 hour+ in my room..with normal fluorescent light on the ceiling turned on..i tried to snap a subject..

at first, i tried with my pop up flash in Aperture mode iso 1600, F4...subject and background will lit.

then i tried to put on F42(finally my body detected F42, i use sandpaper rub the hotshoe on body). same setting with flash in auto mode and Fill-Flash mode with diffuser and point directly to subject. subject not lit. background not bright enough as well..then i tried to put +2 on flash compensation..still not very well lit but got some improvement. Then with same settings, i tried slow-sync..everything will lit, but shutter abit too slow.

how ah?..got F42 but no skill to operate it..

Erm, try putting the F42 2 full power, 1/1 flash?

over power..even if is 1/32...but it do work nicely if i set iso200 1/160 and 1/32 flash power on bounce ceiling...but what if i go to some area like ballroom where i cant bounce and need to retain the background ambience....i cannot use iso200...

if u use flash dont put in aperture mode. put it in manual mode.  btw, check if the flash is set to fill flash not WL in the menu

u really need to try which suitable..
why not try 1 by 1.. no need to rush to master all..

normally for normal room i set camera manual and use 1/4 or 1/2 for flash and bounce 90degree..

haha u don't have iso 100..
if too big like i went to genting last time.. i think no flash is more ok.. with prime..

iso 800/1600 noise not notice much if re-size it later..

my 50mm prime too tight...if got 18mm prime...thats nice..

Kean hui, nice collections got the feel
