pasha_belman Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 <p>what would be a great setting for your camera with on Camera Flash - in Doors.. Like a club or a Restaurant. What should you set your flash to? Or What settings should you use on your cam? I have a NIkon D700. </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Laur Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 <p>Are you talking about the built-in pop-up flash, or an external speedlight mounted in the camera's hot-shoe?</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warrenlewis Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 <p>As a starting place, D300 with an SB-800. I generally bounce off the ceiling, or a wall. I'll start with the camera at 1/60th and adjust the exposure from there. I usually dial the SB-800 down to -0.7...after this it's a matter of reading the histogram or flash meter, knowing what I want to accomplish, and adjusting from there.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken_kuzenski1 Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 <p>Pasha, one more suggestion: Dial your flash (pop-up or hotshoe) down to -1 stop, set the Nikon to "slow" (so the camera shoots at the normal exposure, and the flash provides a moderate level of fill, which will correct color a bit, stop motion some, and still look moderately natural), and then shoot with a f/1.8 or f/1.4 lens. Give it a try!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
