SB-400 Bounce Flash

wrote: Dear All, According to the nikon speedlight sb-400 user manual, you should use larger aperture settings (e.g. f3.6, f4.0, f5.6) if you wish to bounce flash. How can this be? Can anyone explain the rationale behind this? As for me, I would do the opposite because a bounce flash has more distance to travel, and therefore, to compensate, i would stop down the aperture to allow more light in. Stopping down the apertu i.e. closing down ther apertu i.e going to a larger F number: lets _less_ light in. (All things being equal, off course.) Regards, Pb Regards, Eric Stevens |
