<p>Thank you Peter. I will try that:-)</p>

<p>Joe: <br>

Yes I know. I ask a lot of questions (but only in short periods of time and then I reappear again) and I love forums. But it's your fault that I ask all these questions because I get so many useful tips:-) And I feel I "know" most of you.<br>

I spent a lot of time on tutorials on youtube mostly, but there is always some detail I wonder about. But yes I know I have reached the limit with questions about flash in this forum for now:-)<br>

I do make a living of photography, believe it or not. But so far I have used natural light only or just a few lamps with everything on auto. But I want to be good technically as well (Not only aesthetically). I know a lot of guys have the advantage of knowing everything about the tech stuff almost before they pick up a camera. The technical part took me years to learn. Especially light metering and the zone system etc. <br>

Ellis:<br>

So basically fillflash is all flash that fills a subject:-) <br>

Thank you all once again. Interesting posts that I need to read thoroughly. (Especially the long posts that are advanced, plus english is not my first language).<br>

<p>Hi. <br>

I'm wondering if I should measure the light with my camera (on manual) before I turn on my speedlight, and then adjust the light. <br>

Or should I just turn on the speedlight and measure the light right away?<br>

Thank you.</p>

<p>Ok thank you all. I will need to practice a lot. Puhh.. there is so much to learn about flash photography. But I will master it one day:--)<br>

Dick: <br>

Yes I will need a lot of routine when shooting in variated light. Nice photo of the girls.</p>

<p>Hi. <br>

I'm playing around with my built in flashand the SB910 on the D600. <br>

I don't think I understand the term Fillflash. Is that just the flash on lowest power? (I only shoot manual).<br>

Or how do I activate it if there is anything to activate. <br>

Thank you.</p>

<p>Wow that was almost to easy. I was in a way hoping it would be harder. I changed it in a few minutes in Lightroom (After I downloaded it).<br>

So this means that anyone can change it any time. But I guess anything is possible if one really wants to cheat. <br>

But thank you very much for all your help. The most important was that it contains my name and not the guys. </p>

<p>Hi. <br>

I borrowed a camera from a friend and I got a really good photo shot in NEF.<br>

When I was viewing the EXIF info it says his name as the artist. <br>

Can I change that with some kind of application?<br>

Thanks.</p>

<p>Hi Joe (was about to write Hey Joe) :-)<br>

Thank you for the advice. Yes your right. I only bring the flash in case I need to shoot at f.8 and to look more "pro". My Nikon D600 will do the job without. But I really want to start using flash light and learn all I can about it. So I appreciate every advice, like this one.<br>

Thank you.<br>

<p>Hi.<br>

Tomorrow i'm going to take photos of 3-4 people in a room (No idea what size).<br>

But when I use the SB910 flash on a tripod with a shoot through umbrella or use the umbrella as a reflector, the light lands on the people, but then the rest of the room doesn't get lit the same way. It's looks to dark. <br>

Should I turn up the ISO to control the ambient light more?<br>

Or how can I make the room equally lit all over it it's possible?<br>

<br />Thank you.<br>

/S</p>

<p>Very interesting tips. Thank you very much as always in this forum.<br>

Have a wonderful day.<br>

/S.</p>

<p>Hi.<br>

I need to be really good with portrait lightning. <br>

But I don't want to bother people all the time and they don't have time enough to be my model etc. <br>

Any good idea to what I can use as a substitute for a model?<br>

I practice with a flash and a reflector.<br>

<br />Thank you.<br>

/S</p>

<p>Oh yes I forgot to say that it will be in the middle of the day with a lot of daylight coming through the windows. (It's a room made of glass on top of a very tall building, and a lot of light from the ceiling (The ceiling is not made of glass though).<br>

Thank you for all the interesting answers. I will have to make many test shots. <br>

<p>Howard: <br>

I can see that none of the camerashops in my area have them in stock. So I will just shoot the internal flash at 1/128. It looks like it will work. </p>

<p>Hi Peter.<br>

Thank you very much. That is a great and affordable little item. Will get one. (If not a radio trigger).</p>

<p>But if I need the popup flash to trigger it, then it doesn't make sense. <br>

Can I make sure the popup flash doesn't go off? That's ugly with the built in flash in a persons face. <br>

It must be possible, or else what use would an external remote flash be?</p>

<p>Hi. <br>

Yes a beginners question. <br>

Tomorrow i'm taking photos of a guy sitting in a chair with the background about 3-5 meters behind him. <br>

The SB910 will fire remotely into an umbrella just beside him to light him up. (And a reflector on the other side...doesn't really matter).<br>

But my question is.. will the background be dark? My guess is that it will not. <br>

Help.. I really hope so, because I need the background white. (The background is a wall almost only with huge windows and thin frames. But that's the way they insist I shoot it. </p>

<p>Thank you.</p>

<p>/S.</p>

<p> </p>

<p>Oh that video was just what I needed. Thank you so much for saving me for hours of reading. <br>

Great. Have a nice evening both of you.</p>

<p>Hi. <br>

Today I bought a Nikon SB 910. The guy in the shop said I didn't need a wireless trigger on the cameras hotshoe to shoot wireless with my camera. I should save the money and use the built in IR.<br>

I simply can't find it anywhere in the camera or on the flash. Is it really possible? Is it not easier to get a radio trigger or a cabel?<br>

Thank you.</p>

<p>/S</p>

<p>Thank you very much for all the good advice. Realy appreciate it.<br>

Maybe I will "just" get a good old hassie with film. I always miss film and i'm always in a dilemma about film vs. digital. </p>

<p>Hi.<br>

I love the square format. And i'm a little "tired" of film.<br>

What is the cheapest way to get a digital format camera?<br>

(Not toy cams like Lmo etc.)</p>

<p>Thank you..<br>

/S</p>

<p>Thank you so much for your help. I'm gonna have to read it a few times, and test it. <br>
