Capsicum by Night!

Did I mention that I recently discovered that my 20+ year old Vivitar flash actually works with my 400D? Sort of. I can't believe I had never tried it before now. Actually, I had forgotten I owned it.

It only works in fully manual mode, and by modern standards it's a primative flash - but better than the on-camera flash on the Canon.

I decided to play with it tonight - seeing if it was worth further experimentation. Based on the results I fugure it's worth trying in other situations.
