Notes on bounce flash
For a simple bounce flash technique, tilt the flash head upward and
bounce the flash light off the ceiling. Note that the flash should not
directly illuminate the subject.

Lightproof white paper
• The recommended distance between
the flash head and reflective surface
(ex. ceiling) is 1 to 2m (3.3-6.6 ft.).
• Note to prevent the flash light directly
illuminating the subject.
• In color photography, select white or
highly reflective surfaces to bounce
the light off. Otherwise, your pictures
will come out with an unnatural color
cast similar to that of the reflecting
surface.
• When the distance between the flash
head and reflective surfaces is long,
use some A4-size white paper to
bounce the light off. Check that the
bounced light rightly illuminates the
subject.
