@ny1fanta Yes, That's why I'm using a gray card for exposure.

Mark, when adding a speed flash. Will the camera light meter factor in what your flash settings are set to?

[snapfactory]

@jdadub When you add a speedlight you actually control two different exposures. Check out episode 1 for a demo and explanation.
