Dirty Pictures
Would you believe how difficult it is to buy a manual flash gun these days!
I have a very nice digital camera with its own built-in flash. Unfortunately it’s not that powerful and I’ve been holding off buying one for a while hoping that the manufacturer might release one. No chance. Their advice to me is to buy a manual flash gun.
Easier said than done because these days most cameras have dedicated TTL flash and don’t like my otherwise great camera. OK I thought – order one. Ha! “could take up to a month to arrive …” when I asked about a good quality flash.
We have a little job to do at the weekend so now I’m going to be running around trying to find a flash in preparation for taking photies in a very dimly lit swingers club.
Wish me luck.
Check eBay! My Hubby is a “budding photographer” (his current dream is to set up his own photography business) and gets most of his equipment off there (new AND used). There might not be anything appropriate (wrong stuff, too long for delivery, whatever), but I’d START looking there. You never know what you might find. 🙂
