Default New Flash!!
Hello all!

I just got a Speedlite 430 EX II (was actually a gift...) and I can not believe that anyone would not have a flash for indoor photography! It's simply amazing the results that you get while using the flash.



Can anyone point into some reading on getting better use out of the flash?

Thank you!

Congrats on your new flash. Nice shot of the cat. I can't direct you, but I'm sure someone else will.

Heres a link to a 3 part series on strobes
