Last daylight saving evening...

It got very dark..... The KDX's light would have been of some use, wish I'd been able to ride tonight, the track looked awesome......

Thanks to the organizers, we've had a wonderful summer of mid week rides....

next week I guess it's back up to Woodhill for the mountain bike night rides (and coffee.....)

Bump down the flash exposure compensation a stop or so, they all seem really hot when you're flashing.

Cheers Drew, I'll get the manual out, I haven't played with that yet.

Menu, 2nd from the left, 2nd down, I use manual mode the 400d ( definitely 300d ) seem to handle flash better in manual mode vs Av/Tv, for the enduro shots I metered down about 1 stop & had no flash exposure compensation ( iso 400 ).

Fill flash should always be done with the camera using Matrix/Full Frame metering. I have mixed and various results with any other type of metering (spot/centered), this is for if you are shooting in an A/P/S priority mode.

If manual, then as takitimu says, it works as you dial in the shutter/aperture for you without any unexpected surprises.

Keen to see some pics from Sunday 6th April race day. My first time at Ardmore ever, novice and junior wildman. RMZ250 with homemade stickytape #46 race numbers.

Please, thank you!
