Hey guys I've just invested in a much need flash gun so its totally new too me but I've spent a few hours watching youtube vids and learning about how to use it correctly , I'm photographing a friends blessing the weekend at a reception so I know its going to be pretty dark inside so will need to use bounce flash a lot ,
I was planning to stick my camera in manual mode and select iso of around 500 ISO up to max 1000 ISO on my Canon 6D and Use E-TTL mode or should I use the manual mode for flash also ? I'm not planning on firing the flash direct in front of me , more of less sticking the light over my right or left shoulder and letting the flash bounce of the white walls. I believe this is the correct way to go about using it.
I have seen all that to get some of the cool effects I need to bring the Shutter speed down and then move the camera to get light trails again is this correct ?
Basic two things I want to know , How can I guarantee Sharpe images using the flash , what settings ? And also what settings will give me Sharpe images but light trails ?
Cheers
