I just read an article in the November issue of "Shutterbug" titled 'A
Studio in your Camera Bag' which described the process of using multiple
flashes for portraits.
I currently have a 4Ti, a T32 and an F280 and only a short TTL cord to
connect the T32 to the Bounce Grip 2. In order to do a three flash setup
(one at the rear for hairlight, one at 45 degrees and one from the front,
either on or off the hot shoe) would you recommend adding two more T32's or
T20's and can the F280 be used at all in this setup? Also, what would I
need in the way of TTL cables and splitters?
Oh, and one last question - Hans mentioned using a "diffuser/wide angle
adapter recommended in case of portraits". When adding diffusers or
umbrellas with TTL/OTF do I have to worry about calculating the flash
strength or exposure?
Thanks,
Ralph
