So I just got back from a practice photo shoot with a firend of mine. We are learning how to use a flash and soft boxes. He is shooting Nikon D200 and I am shooting D5100. I have SB900 which will only work on camera or off camera in a slave mode. He has SB600 I believe and his can work on and off camera just fine coz his camera has a commander mode.
My question is. Whenever he wasnt using his flash we still used mine in a slave mode. It would fire like it is supposed to. But the pictures on his camera looked a LOT better, with a nice brightened up background, with no glare in the eyes that the build-in flash produces etc. Mine, however, looked like snapshots, with glare in the eyes, darker background and all around different light. We had exactly the same settings, but the photos looked different.
I will post examples later. But for now, why is that happening?
