Od Dark Light Back |
I had a good idea to use my DIY softbox with a compact camera built-in flash as a makeshift off-camera flash for my E-510. The immediate results weren't too great, but technically it worked, as long as I gave myself some time for manually releasing the compact camera flash by using delayed shutter release and longer exposure time - in this case 4 seconds.
Eventually I made this shot without any flash. The light came from Christmas-tree and dimmed lamp at the other wall of the room.
Equipment
E-510 with Helios 44-4 lens on a tripod without built-in flash. A570 IS stuck in the softbox working as external flash was not used in the above photo.
What I learned
Unusual light and angle can change ordinary home tool into a strange object. Macro ftw.
