Hello Photomad!

If you have an external flash that you could bounce in the ceiling, that flash would set off your other flash to give correct exposure.
I had the same thing happen to me, my pictures were totally black when I used the built in flash. the built in flash pointed directly at my subject and when I hit the shuttle, the outcome was black.

If bouncing the external flash does not work for you, please let me know what will work. (smile)
