Ok, so I got an external flash (nissin di622) that supports E-TTL/TTL.
I have the TTL mode turned on on the flash (it ovvers manual and slave modes too) and I use Av mode on my camera (canon 7D)
In dark indoor environments, the shutter speed is quite low (which I fully expect without a flash) yet shouldn't it use a faster shutter speed as the flash will be providing tons of light?
Can TTL even be used with Av mode? Or should I be using Manual mode, setting my own aperture, ISO and shutter speed, and letting the flash throw out the correct amount of light needed to give a correct exposure with my manual settings?
tl;dr why doesn't TTL work for me and what modes can I use it in?
