How do you fire?


No fix method. It depends on what is available and where do you plan to have the light coming in from ...
 

Mostly direct....

I only bounce when the ceiling and walls are conducive for it
 

Mostly direct with diffuser....

what if theres no ceiling? then diffuser?
 

The ABBC with black stripe works brilliantly for me, especially portraits - great feathering look. Use that most of the time, followed by Sto-Fen and usually bouncing off ceiling and when needed, direct flash, still with Sto-Fen.
 

Never direct. Bounce when ceiling is not too high and color neutral. Diffuser when no ceiling to bounce. Large flash card when i take indoor group shots
 

so garyfong reporter, lightsphere or which is better?

There is no such thing as a garyfong reporter.

As to which diffuser/flash accessory is better, everyone will have their preferences, and every flash accessory produces a different kind of effect, and is used in a different situation. There is no one magic solution for every situation.
 

i use an omnibounce
diff people diff preferences
i try to bounce most of the time
 

direct with a diffuser for me cause i feel more comfortable that way :sticktong:sticktong:sticktong
