hi guys,
i hope you can help me out. i am using a sunpak digital flash adapter and "unomat" flash for my indoor shots with my fz5. the built-in flash is triggers the external flash through the slave trigger in the flash adapter.
i'm quite happy with the set up except for one point, when i try to take close up pictures of my 1 month baby, i have to underexpose to compensate for the external flash. otherwise, i'll have blownout pics. the problem is the LCD/EVF is too dark for me to see the subject/baby to know if it is correct focused or to compose properly while waiting for the right moment to take the picture. my baby smiles for only a second and it takes longer than that to compose and focus with the fz5. any suggestions???
thanks!

p.s. the external flash makes a million difference for indoor shots!:thumbsup:
