Well like always there are challenges, for example shooting pictures in the dark of people playing soccer if there are no overhead lights on...

The SB-900 worked very well for this and has some serious power, but the recharge time kinda kills it and you really have to time your shots.

Well at least I got 2 shot's out of 64 or so

Da mein SB-900 am Mittwoch geliefert wurde konnte ich es nun gar nicht mehr erwarten ihn mal ausgibieg zu testen. Der erste war, wie gut ist er um damit aufnahmen in der daemmerung zu machen un er war ueberraschend gut, allerdings ist die ladezeit viel zu hoch. Jedenfalls mit meinen billiegen batterien.
Nun man kann sich ja mal ein powerpack basteln, sobald jemand die schaltung des nikon powerpacks veroeffentlicht.

ok after reading this thread and seeing what you can do with just a single flash,

well I'm not there yet and need to practise way way more...

I just love the softbox effect and that's the one thing I can't do with speedlights :(

and the lord said there will be light and light it was.
Basically I was bored and played with my speed lights and since I always wanted to try to make a self portrait, well here it is.

Is mostly hard light and a little bit soft light to make me a little bit younger...
