Re: Nikon SB800 - How to reduce flash output without undrexposing shot ?
Just set the SB-800 to iTTL BL FP and dial in -2/3 flash exposure on the unit (down arrow twice on the strobes thumb pad) and that's it. Ensure your camera is in Matrix metering mode as well.
If I'm bouncing the 800, I might want to leave it at 0EV compensation or add between 1/3 to 1EV extra, depending on the distance to subject and height of ceiling.
If doing this underexposes the whole shot, then there's some other factor at play. The iTTL function of Nikon's strobes gives has given me consistent, repeatable results all the time.
