It's nigh-on impossible to get a good shot of me with a consumer-level DSLR that uses preflash, I'm way too sensitive to the preflash and the delay between preflash and actual firing is too long. I had a friend of mine try repeatedly with a D70 and SB800, he got good shots in Auto or manual flash and closed eyes in i-TTL mode. Same goes for Canon. A Canon 1D or Nikon D2 has a small enouhg delay between preflash and actual firing to catch my eyes before they close. -Adam -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
