Hello everybody, i have a Canon 30D and i am looking to get a flash but i am not sure where to start doing some consumer research.
I was at a show the other week and i saw a photographer who had a neat looking flash on his camera and had constructed some kind of hood out of a soap box or something that was taped on the back of the flash head and sort of went around the sides. He got my attention because he was bouncing it off the ceiling (a technique i hadn't seen before) and i peered over his shoulder at is LCD and he was getting some great shots with it.
Blah blah anyway the point of the story is it inspired me to get a flash. I shoot at alot of shows and i am going to be hired to shoot an after-party thing pretty soon so i am in the market for one.
My questions are: can anyone provide links to flash reviews, info on diffrent types of flashes, advice, links to info on using flashes, personal experiences... anything really.
I don't don't have an internet connection at home so i don't have alot of time to scour the forum archives or the rest of internet for that matter, so any help or links would be much appreciated! Thanks
