Hey all.
I am awaiting delivery of a Canon Speedlite 430 EXII and, being a complete greenhorn when it comes to Speedlites, have a quick question.
I like to try and drop ambient light levels in my shots by one or two stops (as per Strobist's recommendations) and was wondering if I am shooting with the 430 EX either on camera or an off-camera cord, do I just dial in -1 or -2 ev when shooting in aperture priority mode to drop the ambient light levels?
Or, will this affect the flash lit portion of the picture?
Cheers.
