Default Re: First Time With Metz Flash

Hey Kelly,

Glad to see you out and about trying the Metz. Did you get the wireless going?

Anyway, your doing the exact same stuff I'm going to work on this weekend.

In test one: did you try it at around f/8.0, 1/30th? If so, did it overexpose? The reason I ask is that this is what I would try from the get go. My thinking is (from Mark's explanations) that the flash is only going to expose for the subjects and therefore the f/8, 1/30th would bring in the beautiful ambient light in the horizon. This may be totally wrong though. But one thing that still gets me is how should I be metering for this exact same shop? Partial? How did you meter? I would think that you would never meter spot or what about evaluative? I just don't know yet.

Craig
