ABSTRACT

Again, consider all accessory purchases carefully. Buying and bringing a flash is a commitment. They’re big, heavy, and make your camera more of a burden to carry. If you’ve also brought a large or long lens, the combination can get uncomfortable. But I can tell you from experience: if you’re committed to using a telephoto zoom, you should also commit to the flash. A flash is more likely to get the shot you want, because you seldom have enough light for telephoto lenses. That’s true indoors or out.
