Funny enough a chap I worked with was discussing how cool this feature was and I stumbled across it at the weekend, I just tend to use my 580 as a straight forward flash so have not used this feature, I have to say it does look worth a play.

ANyway I am not sure if it helps but I found this not a lot of info but may get you started.

Thanks wavemachine it goes a great way to help me understand this feature so will attempt to give it a go . If you are successful with an image Please post it and I will do the same.

I wonder what other features it has that we are not aware of !!!!!

Thanks again

No problem, I will have a play soon and will try and get an image posted good or bad

Generally I need to get around to posting some images anyway.
