Re: Nikon SB800 - How to reduce flash output without undrexposing shot ?

I would not use the built in flash. My external flash is a very old Vivitar 285 but this allows you to do a couple of things that would help:

a. you can angle the head to bounce the light of a ceiling
b. Attach a reflecting card to the flashgun

The latter allows a much softer light and works OK but obviously not as good as a studio lamp. This will also work for small groups as well as individuals.
