Today I was at a sunflower feild and there was no shade at all! About 5pm so it was very very bright but still somewhat back lit situation. I got the wife and kids out, grabbed my ad600 and stand and position my family with their backs to the sun and was using the ad00 for fill. Now, I would have taken a ambient meter reading with my sekonic 308 and got the fstop I was looking to get and then measured the flash till I got the desired fstop again and shoot away, right?
Well, I didn't have the meter today and set my camera to spot meter and then eye ball the fill.. but the meter in my camera would jump so much it was hard to control the exposure. I mean it would jump all around. Am I doing this wrong, if I use the camera meter, should I use something other than spot meter? Thanks.
