Thanks for the reply, and ideas, I have noticed a slight difference in some of the shots. Also I did some testing last night, and your comment about how I am holding the meter might be part of it, I will have to pay attention to that and see. As far as the power setting, I am down just less than 1/8th power. With the main Brolly umbrella about 4 feet away from the subject. I was trying to shoot at f5.6, but read some articles today and they suggested the one might want to be around f11 for main, and f8 for the fill. So I’m going to do another test tonight and see what happens if I raise the power a bit. I am going to do a shoot this Saturday at my wife’s company dinner, so testing to see what will work best for both couples and larger groups, possibly as many as 4 people, so a bit more light might help as well.
