Hello everyone. Please forgive me if this topic has been mentioned before, but I need some advice on using or defusing flash.
We are having one of many Christmas dinners this weekend and I will be taking a ton of pics. My problem is I only have a built in flash(Rebel G camera), and last year, most of the kids came out with red eye, and 2 of the adults wear glasses, which made a kind of cool effect on the glasses if I were shooting for Halloween.
I have heard that you can place a paper towel of sheet of paper over the flash to eliminate some of the light. Is this a good idea? Right now $$$$ is the main factor in purchasing another flash before Christmas.
Also any suggestions on shooting a person who wears glasses would also be greatly appreciated.
Thank you to all in advance who respond, and have a great day!!!
