Mike, glad to hear you now understand. I figured it had to click sooner or later :)

Aperture is read the oppisite of how your explaining it. Larger/Largest apertures

Maybe I should have explan it better I didn't want a blur background on my 18-135 lens, I wanted the background and foreground in Focus only, then I got confused with the f/numbers on my camera and tried to explain my meaning to the forum members here, then I got even more confused about the (narrow) depth of field and (wide) depth of field and the f/stop numbers.

So this is all new to me, so I am sorry to anyone if I confused any of you. but I have learn and understand about the aperture f/numbers and now the (narrow) depth of field and (wide) depth of field and the more about light and less about light in the camera and lens. so now I will try out all what I have learned.

Thank you.:D

This is my first attempt really playing with the flash as a slave.

I asked this question in the lighting section but got no response, so maybe I'll do better here? Someone a few pages back mentioned a RF-602 to me in this thread and it got me wondering...


Hi all... I'd like some help/advice, as I'm pretty clueless regarding lighting.

First off, I have the first version of the Yongnuo 460. I've been working with this mounted on camera, and while it gives ok results, I'd like to step things up a little.

I own a 60D an thought I'd try to see how the built in wireless transmitter worked with my flash. Considering the dumb design decision to put the receiver inside the flash head itself on the 460, all I succeeded in doing was blinding myself.

I guess my question is twofold: what's my best option for getting an E-TTL flash (I don't mind another Yongnuo) and two, what's my best option for an inexpensive OCF? Should I just stick with my 460 for this purpose and maybe add a RF-603 set on for more versatile control?

Thanks!

Glad to se that you are learning about the f/stops. It can be overwelming at first. All the guys have chipped in to lend a hand, and thats what this thread has and is about. We do like to have our fun here, but we always take care of our fellow 60D'ers!;):D:D

It was your reply that made me think about the f/numbers. Go with a narrower aperture, like f/10 or higherThe narrower the aperture, the greater the depth of field so thanks.:D
