Is it just me or do the highlights in these pics seem a little blown out?
I have a problem. These pics were taken at about f/2.8, ISO 100, 1/500 exposure time with my 50mm f/1.8 and my 430EX II Speedlight bounced off the ceiling. It is too dark to use no flash, but when I do use flash at such a large aperture, it makes my pics REALLY bright. I can do one of two things, or a combination of both. I can shoot at a really high shutter speed (what I did) or make the aperture smaller. The problem with making the aperture smaller is that it will ruin the effect of having such a shallow DOF and I might as well use my kit lens. Is raising the shutter speed the best way to compensate?
