jim_strutz Posted October 20, 1999 Share Posted October 20, 1999 It depends on how high the ceiling is. Higher ceilings require higher bounce angles. The normal procedure is the bounce the flash to a point on the ceiling about half the distance to the front of subject. <p> Since you have a 380EX you have to bounce against a wall if you hold the camera in the vertical position, or else get an off-shoe cord. But the same "half the distance" still works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
