flash n bounce card

[yumyum]

what size is bounce card suitable for? n do i laminate the bounce card?

Use the flash... turn it around, fire off with the bounce card behind... then see how far the light goes and cut accordingly.

usually the bigger the safer... but u dont want to carry a A4 size card around.. can check out those branded ones available on shelves before DIYing...

I prefer a matte surface. If you really want it that smooth might as well use a mirror right?

im not sure abt using bounce card for wedding. unless youve got a super quick recharge flash, a bounce card may suck too much juice from your falsh. in crucial moments like weddings, i would think that you need a quick recycle rate.

haha... are u sure? lots n lots n lots of pple use bounce cards/LS/Omnibounce 4 weddings...

For shooting with bounce card, LS, omnibounce, or ceiling bounce, of course will consume more battery power.

For SB800, can use the 5th battery, or get a external battery pack for you flash unit.

use the 5th battery add-on, up your iso to 400+ ... and it should be able to recharge fast enough ...
