  1. Thanks for the heads up about reducing shutter speed to let in more ambient light. Will try this in future. Thanks, but really not up to par on flash filters to correct ambient lighting. I don't feel quite comfortable using them at this time. Will try to investigate further.
  2. Thanks guy. Probably expected that. Wouldn't hurt to have used full bounce flash, either. OK. That's my answer. Thanks again.
  3. When I was younger I routinely shot at 1/60, sometimes handheld at 1/30 with pleasing results. Now I am 62 and have a bit of hand shake so nothing under 1/125. These two are among the first set from my new D750. In image of couple, the ISO was 320. Shutter speed 1/125 at f/2.0. Flash power was -0.7. Only I had my diffuser on. Simply removing the diffuser should give the results I want. Plenty of keepers before without it on the D7100. From there I can simply adjust the power of the flash directly (i.e. -0.3, +0.7). Thanks for the good info. And happy hunting.
  4. Will also add I shot with my NIkon 85mm prime at 320 ISO.
  5. Couple shot in Manual at f/2, 1/125 sec w/ flash diffuser over head of flash. From everyone's comments I think I just need to remove the diffuser to increase strength of flash to overpower ambient lighting. Will try this first because I didn't have a problem until I put the diffuser on. All the others turned out fine for my taste. Thank you, all.
  6. I am using the Nikon D750 and a Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 85mm f/1.8G Lens. I have a Tiffen 67mm Black Pro-Mist 1 filter attached with the HB-62 Bayonet Lens Hood that came with camera. Some of my shots had very, minor vignetting at the top corners. One in particular (see attached image) bothered me. Can anyone tell me what caused this? Help.
  7. Thanks. Leave the diffuser off. Simple. KISS. "Keep It Simple Stupid" HaHa. Guess I can't leave well enough alone. Thanks for I think this is the answer I was looking for.
  8. It doesn't happen when far away (image 1). Only when closer ( image 2). See above.
  9. It doesn't happen when the flash is far away (image 64). Only when the flash is close (image 13).
  10. Taken 1000's of photos in church social hall with D7100 + SB700 with no problem. Changed to D750 and my first batch are terrible. The main thing I did differently (other than Auto ISO) is, previously, I used bounce flash w/ catch light panel 90 degrees from flash head (the flash was pointed straight up and the catch light panel was facing subject). This time I used the included diffuser accessory w/o the catch light accessory. All the peoples heads have an awful yellow glow around the top. This is the first time taking pictures with the diffuser. Should I have set my filters different? I am shooting in RAW. Please help! The setting for the D750 are similar to my previous camera (D7100).
