Comment | I have just begun using flash for birds and would appreciate some feed back on my technique. My wife and I had a few hours to spare waiting for fight home from Townsville and went to Townsville common. It was about 2:00pm and bright sunshine, a time of day I would normally avoid.This photo was taken of the Leaden Flycatcher in the shade. The camera was set on manual with exposure about 2 stops below centre and flash on ETTL with -⅔ FEC. Am I on the right track? | ||||||||||||||||||
