i will use whatever light (be it available/ambient light, strobes or off camera flashes) to my advantage. why limit yourself ?

 

strobist.com how to : 1 580EX with homemade beauty dish (set manually at 1/8 at 24mm), handheld by a friend on the top left. shot with 17-40mm f4.0 L USM at 17mm iso 200 1/80 f5.6 trigger via canon ste-2.

 

additional notes :

a. recommend to use lens hood at wide angle.

b. a 26" inch diameter dish would be ideal, shoot not more than 3ft from the subject, placement right above the forehead - else it wont look so flattering.

c. personally, you don't need to use aperture more than f8 because it will drain the flash batteries and might be an overkill for a small confine space.

d. always good to refer to 580EX manual if you are not sure. i rtfm :S
