    Thanks. Canon 1D Mark IIN with an onboard Canon 550EX flash set to manual and 1/4 power. For a lens I used a Canon 300 2.8L at ISO 800, manual setting of f2.8 and 1/250.

    I still can't believe how precise you are with your flash, especially on manual. That something I still have a hard time with. Tack sharp, as usual!

    +1, Need such great timing. I still fire off at 5fps to get decent shots. Need a strobe that can do that!!

    Thanks. I think shooting high school football with flash has made me a better shooter as I really have to try and time my snaps.
