Is there any good examples like this where same shot was done using one on camera flash and then one off camera flash. Would be helpful to show people how much better results off camera flash can give.

digitalparadise Awaiting the title ferry...  More info | May 30, 2011 11:30 | #4 You have a loaded question. The problem is specifics. The flash masters who reside here could post images and fool you into thinking an off camera flash was superior to an on camera flash when actually the image was taken with the flash on the camera. Image Editing OK

May 30, 2011 13:11 | #6 digital paradise wrote in post #12503874 Are talking about on camera direct flash, on camera bounced flash or on camera with modifier flash vs. off camera flash? This is why this is a tough question to answer. flash firing on camera vs flash firing on some other place. Doesn't matter if direct, bounced etc.

They will have shots with no flash, with on board flash, one off camera flash from side and so on as part of various introductory lessons to lighting. Fuji XT-1, 18-55mm

RPCrowe Cream of the Crop  More info | I ALWAYS bounce my flash (except for a lot of outdoor fill shots) and use a Joe Demb Flash Diffuser Pro to modify the bounced flash...    However, when I am traveling, I will use the flash on camera, bouncing it with the Joe Demb Flash Diffuser pro modifying the light. I tend to use the Flash Diffuser pro in this configuration because it is effective when I shoot in the portrait configuration...   Bouncing the flash mounted on-camera with my Flash Diffuser Pro gives very nice lighting and is easier to carry and transport than using a Stroboframe Bracket...

This is very true. With off camera flash, the placement of the flash is controlled exactly. Direct flash, besides bouncing you just don't have the same amount of control.
