If I pop up my flash for fill flash and turn it down some I can get some good fill in to my shadows during times when it is unavoidable. But, isn't almost always using your pop up flash a recipe for an awful photo somewhat? If I pop it up indoors or at night, won't I still get that "flash" look that you get; the "deer in headlights" look?
If I pop up my flash and turn down my ISO a bit so that I can lower my aperture to create a shallower depth of field, I still, because of the added light, cannot get a blurred enough background. Distancing my subject from the background helps but it's not the same. Any advice on fill flash/DOF/and pretty lighting when additional light is needed?
I do own the SB700 but have not mastered it
