I'm interested in the replies to this query, so I'd rather that they were
"on list".

Subject: [OM] Flash Exposure Compensation?
Hello All.
I know this has been discussed here before, but after reading the
archives,
and the varied responses, I'm more confused.
I have an OM-2S and a T-20 flash. With no compensation, my indoor
pictures
in dark places (restaurant/bars) make people's faces wash out, or leave them
with very little contrast at all. I know my camera meter/OTF is working
okay, because in regular light the pictures look great in AP and program.
Short of going to manual, what is the last word on getting 1/2-1 stop less
light output? I'm really looking for a "focus and fire" approach, if there
is one.
My niece is getting married this weekend, and they don't have money to
hire
a photographer, so everybody's just bringing their P&Ss. I would like to
bring my camera as well, but I'm afraid of the same effect. So, the
environments I will be shooting in are restaurants where the rehearsal
dinner and reception are held.
If you all are understandably bored with this topic, please feel free to
reply off-list.
Thanks
Cam Bevis
