so i got the ab800 like you all recommended, also got the 22" dish and 'sock' cover. i've seen around the forum that i should have a shutter speed of around 180ish. so when i do that, i've got to turn the light ALL the way down and use a f/11 or higher to not get a totally white (overblown) picture. i'm shooting in an apartment that's about as big as a suv, with all the furnature and crap i've got jammed into this little place i'm honestly working with about 7 or 8 feet from camera to background. my problem is that if i take the shot at f/22 or something so it looks decent, i've got a completely sharp fabric wall for a background - and photoshopping an entire background isn't fun. is there a super duper secret photo pro secret setting i can use? lol...i know more space and talent would be the ideal answer, but if any of you cn point me in the right direction that'd be great.

BTW - we're talking about a d100 and an AB800 if that makes any difference.

thanks in advance.
