Adjusting Bounce Angle
An unsightly photo results when both direct light and bounced light
from the flash are used simultaneously.
Determine the bounce angle in reference to the distance to the
reflective surface, the distance from the camera to the subject, and
the focal length of the lens etc.

70mm minimum 45°
28~70mm
60°
28mm maximum 75°, 90°
