... no modifiers? That's a bit...... rough 'n' ready.
I would expect to get laughed at.
Best thing I can suggest: check out diyphotography.net and think about at least one reflector.

1) get a greycard. learn to use it
2) set everything to manual or tav. manual white balance, raw. high iso...
skip the flash....
position yourself if possible, with the window to your back and try to shoot when the subject is at a 45 deg angle to your light (the window)... or near one ot the other lights as a second choice... same 45 deg angles though...
take your light reading where the subject will be in the best light you can find, and set your self up to shoot there.

Fired many shots. Didn't kill anything.

Expose for the skin and not the back ground
2x K10D bodies, 2x FA 28-200 3.8-5.6, DA 18-55, A 50 F2, 50mm Macro, 360 FGZ. Still saving for the 60-250 DA* Also have a Z10 35mm and a K1000 just for fun. IF PENTAX IS THE ANSWER, WHO CARES WHAT THE QUESTION IS...!

Hi guys thanks for all your help the day when great i took loads of photos out of 200 got about a 60-80 good looking shots a lot of time in photoshop cuting out and so on. it was a great trail and error day.
bretti_kivi i managed to get a reflector and an umbrella work well since i had nothing.
Don i tried half manual and half tav i think i now love the manual controls now and stopped using all the auto controls as much as i use to.
Thanks guys [img]
