Reflections2000 Senior Member 342 posts Likes: 1 Joined Jan 2010 Location: Battle Ground WA More info | Really nice shot and as mentioned, great balance using it more as fill. I've been thinking about buying a BB, what do you find is the effective range using it? I fish because that's what the voices in my head tell me to do.

windpig Chopped liver  More info | Apr 20, 2010 17:18 | #12 Wow, that's a fantastic shot. At the distance you shot the abouve, how much more does the BB focus the beam compared to having the 430 zoomed to 100MM? Would you like to buy a vowel?

I'd be guessing to answer that but do know that I struggled a few weeks back using just the 430EX by itself. Never could I get the flash coverage accurate enough. It was either under or overexposed and always looked, well flashed. I am using my BB and flash on the camera, no extension arm.

Here's an excellent article from naturescapes.net on the use: Getting the Most From Your “Better Beamer” Flash X-tender™ Thanks for the link. I'm very interested in a BB.
