Hi guys. I'm pretty new to photography and would like to ask about some stuff regarding flash photography.
Recently, I had an indoor event at a restaurant. The lighting in there is pretty dim so I used the built-in flash and pumped up the iso to 1600. I am currently using the Sony alpha A300 with the standard kit lens. Overall the pictures were alright but group photo's have some faults. The people in the back row tend to be darker than the first few rows.
So i'm considering to buy an external flash to overcome this problem.
What are the things i should consider when looking for an external flash? My budget is below $250.
