I have just started to play around a little with this style of lighting at weddings, you tips have been most helpful, you are so right though when you say you have to know how your flash / camera is going to react and to practice practice practice – many thanks

“I use ‘master’ mode for one on-camera and one in my left hand – or an ST-E2 if they’re both off camera.”

If I’m right Canon can’t shoot with rear curtain in this configuration. Isn’t it an issue for you or do you have a trick?

Thank’s, very interesting blog.

Im curious with the mark II, how are you “connecting” the second flash unit.

I was always under the impression that the flash on the shoe will take priority over the hand held.

Thanks
