Nina was good enough to sit fairly still for my flash filter test. I think I like #2 best.
1) Clear (opaque)
2) Frost (opaque)
3) Vellum (opaque)
4) No filter

I found this spider in the garden shed. The picture was created from a focus stack of 74 photos taken with a Schneider f2.8 40mm APO lens reverse mounted and using a flash.
The wild-eyed photographer at the wedding was a volume shooter and never took fewer than three shots in succession. It was easy to steal his flash. I know what it's like to live in his world because I'm the same way.
Testing my new mini slave flash (Morris mini Slave Flash Plus), to try and remove the shadow created by having just one flash.
This photo is the "after", using both the on-camera flash and the slave.

I did not use flash. The pro on my left side did. I caught his flash on 1/250. We obviously found the same moments interesting, but 1/180 is supposed to be the fastest flash sync on the E-400?
(Shooting RAW is nice when this happens. The boys had an unhealthy over-exposed pale skin color in the JPEG from the camera.)
I just realized, that I never tested two A-mode flashes (each flash has its own sensor). So, I just did this. My flashes don't have 1/2 or /1/3 stops in A-mode, so I used full stops (I could have cheated the ISO setting, though). The test shows, that TTL provides more accurate and more pleasant exposures IMO. Please note, that the A-mode shots show MORE FILL LIGHT, which is detectable if you look at the background. If I were to use A-mode, I'd probably decrease the fill light, instead of increasing the key light! One sensor in the camera is better than one in each flash (not a huge surprise :-) ) No editing was done (JPG's), except crop and resize.
I believe that the test furthermore shows, regarding the TTL samples, and compared to my previously posted image of the boy: Using a steep horizontal angle of the key light - towards a "rim light position" - calls for higher + compensation for the key light. This can be explained by the fact, that a key light in a steep position hits less of the background, thus reflecting less light back to the sensor. In the samples with the ball 0 or +5 looks good. The boy (almost rim light) needed a + 1.5 correction. SO the difference between key and fill should be somewhere between 0 and +1.5 (apr. 0% - 300%).
