[...] I guess with an actual external flash that you could attach to the hotshoe (the metal bracket thing at the top) of the camera, any flash compensation settings you have set for the built-in flash would also apply to the external flash. I turned down my flash to -2, which makes it less intense (something I’ve learned from MostlyLisa). [...]

Hi Lisa:
I was just reading your site. I am hoping you might shed some light on a problem no one has been able to answer. I fell with my camera some time ago, damaged my lens and had it repaired. I notice that since then I am having problems with out of focus pictures. I specially have problems indoors in low light where I am too far for a flash. I try opening my aperture to it’s max and even going as high as 3200 ISO, but they are not totally in focus. I take a lot of shots of my grandkids in school plays and sports and find that even with very speed my photos are not crisp. Could this be due to the fall on the camera itself? If so, what should I do? Thank you for your help.

Amazingly put!

Did have a question on your experience shooting with a 50 1.4 vs s 85 1.4 & 1.8. I am trying to decide which lens to get from these three and would love to hear your thoughts. Primarily to shoot editorial fashion type pictures.
