Im playing with some macro shots and not used flash much in the past
I have the camera in manual mode, Iso 160, 1/250th f20
I have the Godox TT685 Flash camera mounted.
If I shoot with the flash in Manual at 1/1 power which is as high as it goes im getting shadowing in the shot. The bottom of image drops away into partial shadow with the magnolia wall 18inch behind more grey to blue looking which i assume is the light not projecting far enough?
If I set the flash to TTL this shadow effect is not present, its more evenly lit and the wall more magnolia coloured so assume that the light is projecting further
Now if 1/1 is max power how can TTL produce more power or the effect of doing so? I dont appear to be able to change any other setting on the flash unit that has any effect
SO to save my sanity what is occuring to create this diference?
