Bob: I, too, use this method exclusively indoors and have obtained amazing photos of people and pets with my R8, both straight on and bouncing the flash off light-colored ceilings. It's one of many reasons I love and appreciate my R8!

The results are just as consistent, so long as there is enough film speed for the selected aperture.  I have used this only indoors so far, using both the bounced main with secondary fill-in, and with "straight on" main.
