The VS-570 flash head can be tilted
up at 45-, 60-, 75-, and 90-degree
angles to the lens. It can also be
swiveled horizontally 180 degrees
to the left and 120 degrees to the
right. When bouncing your flash,
you may need to adjust your
exposure settings, since the level
of light falling on your subject will
be reduced. The farther away the
bounce surface and your subject are,
the more illumination will be reduced.
Tip: Bouncing your flash off of colored surfaces can create a color cast in your images. Bouncing off of a white
or neutral-colored surface will not alter the color of the light, while bouncing off of a gold-toned surface can
give portraits a warmer look. Other colors, while usually not desirable, can be used for creative effects.
