dvperrin · 02-15-2007

I"m sorry, I'm really not new. Just haven't been on in a while. Anyway, my camera is a Canon Rebel XT. And no, it doesn't work on or off the shoe. It only goes off when the camera flash goes off and I didn't think it was supposed to work that way. I would like to use it for fill in some outdoor shots, but if I turn on my oncamera flash, it overexposes the shots. It flashes when I test it, so there's no problem there, it just doesnt work like it's supposed to and I don't know what to do about it.
