All at f/5.6. Can someone tell me though why my photos turn out darker when I use f/2 (not shown)? I'm only using TTL as of the moment.

Everytime I change the aperture I have to change the exposure meter to compensate, so either I have the same problem or this is common while using manual lenses with DSLR's.

I think you need a second opinion on the flash exposure (e.g. with a flash meter).

It may actually be better to go full manual once you can dial in the exposure with the Flash meter.

@Tharos: I think wilson.c is right. I found this article last night: http://neilvn.com/tangents/flash-photography-techniques/7-metering-techniques/. I have yet to read it though.

@karabud: Thank you. Smile
