Hello all,

I will be doing a project for my artwork using experimental lighting. Shooting with a Canon Xsi. I am thinking about using the LED Maglites I have laying around positioned in such ways to cast light onto my subject (s).

As for camera settings I was thinking of using the NO FLASH function. But I cannot shoot in RAW in that function. So I guess Tv would be my best option? I also have a 580exII flash and the 480 or whatever its called as well. Should I use those? I am worried about the long shutter speeds do to the low light. If anyone has any comments please let me know! Thanks!

are you doing this just to see what happens or do you have a planned out project and specific image your trying to achieve?
