nigel_keene Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 I have one 580 and one 550 Ex flashes and I was wondering whether this was enough to light a room of say 10m x 5m. If so and assuming the room was kind of rectangular where would you place the flashes to get all round room lighting and would using a master flash on camera be a good idea or should both be off camera and a remote triggering device used?

timcorridan Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 i would piont them both at the cieling, assuming its white. results will vary depending on situation. are you actually trying to shoot from wall to wall, 30 feet away? is it night? are the lights low as in a reception? are you going to aviod the cieling flash splash of light? is the cieling too low? are you shooting at f1.4 or f11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
