Adjusting bounce angle
Simultaneously using direct light and bounced light from the flash unit produces
uneven lighting. Adjust to the best bounce angle while performing a test flash in
actual shooting conditions.
Examples of shooting conditions:
• distance from camera to reflective surface
• flash range
• focal length of lens
When the flash is bounced upwards
Determine the angle in relation to the following table.
