The shots have shadows in the bottom of
the image.
• Because of parallax error between lens
and flash unit, close-up shots may not,
depending on the focal length at the
bottom of the image, be fully illumina-
ted. Turn the wide-angle diffuser in front
of the reflector.
The shots are too dark.
• The subject is beyond the range of the
flash unit.
Note: Using bounce flash reduces the
range of the flash unit.
• The subject contains very bright or
highly reflective areas. The metering
system of the camera or flash unit is
k
deceived as a result.
Set a positive manual flash exposure
correction, e.g., +1 EV.
The shots are too bright.
• When taking close-ups, make sure to
preserve specific minimum illumination
ranges to avoid overexposure. The mini-
mum distance from the subject should
represent at least 10% of the maximum
range.
