I use a flash in the house a lot. I have 2 small kids that I am always chasing around, so slow shutters are not good. I am a recent convert from Canon, and I used, over the years, many bodies, and I used a third party flash as well as a 430EX II... Fast forward to today... I have an E-3 and a 12-60 SWD lens and I picked up a used FL-36R flash. My problem is that as the flash, when it is on the camera, gives me a dark area at the bottom of the image. The built in flash only barely shows a shadow of the lens, but I don't think the FL-36R is casting a shadow on the lens... It's almost like the lower part of the flash is not firing. I anyone has any input, please let me know... Thanks...
