Iv looked on line, and Im a little confused by it all, would someone mind answeing a few basic questions for little stupid me!?
Question 1: So, I have a couple of cheap interfit flashes
they are generally really good (though I have nothing to compare them too). Im currently using an infrared horseshoe adapter
to trigger them. I also own a 430ii flashgun. Is there a way (other than spending loads of cash on radio triggers) that I can make my flashgun trigger using the same horseshoe adaper that I use to trigger my flashes?
Question 2: are there any fast/basic rules as to how to defuse the light - I work in a pretty cramped space, and was wonder in there are any benifits to say using an umbrella (shooting though, or as bounce?!) or a soft box? and in regard to soft boxes - I currently have a small one (60x60 I think) would a larger softbox result in a softer lighting?
Question 3: Back onto umbrellas - iv not used a silver one, has anyone here...does anyone have any thoughts regarding them?
I realise these are probably all really simple stupid questions, but if anyone does not mind answering them I would really appreciate your thoughts!
