Hello,
I recently bought the above and I've got a question:
With my analog camera with external flash unit the following happened:
for example in a dark room without flash the camera said exposure time 2 sec with diaphragm 2.8. And when you put on the flash unit it read 1/60 sec with d. 2.8.
But now with the EOS and the ringflash it doesn't seem to make any difference, with or without flash: when it reads 1/30 sec with d. 2.8 it also reads the same with the ringflash attached, where I would assume expore time would decrease or diaphragm would decrease.
Can anyone tell me why this is? I was hoping to be able to shoot insects better with the ringflash: higher diaphragm for more DOF with the same exposure time.
Thanks in advance for helping me out.
André
