Gerry-
I am playing with the TTL on my R7 since I got a Metz 32CT whatever- I did
some interiors yesterday at a home show and the best shots were using
ambiant light from the windows- and let me tell you! These houses had some
great windows!
I augmented the natural light with fill flash, and the best of the lot are
the ones where the flash blends naturally with the natural light that it
looks like you have a window behind you- the difference is there- but it
just doesn't LOOK like flash! I think this is what Bob Maxey was referring
to, though I don't pretend to speak for him!
I hate to admit it, because I think I'm about to get dumped on, but I am
beginning to think that fill flash has its value in some situations! I
definately intend to pursue the matter further!
