A good flash?

Mainly indoors shooting concerts, but may use outdoors for night time skating (honestly will probably just get flood lights for this tho)

Speedlight 430EX II. Mildly inexpensive and does wonders.

Next question.



Does anyone know of any good books for beginners that I can get


I downloaded " The digital photography book" set by Scott Kelby today but I want something that explains all the basics,
light balance, iso, aperture, etc, knowing what to set the speeds at for each lens and all that stuff.



Just a good break down of everything.


I was thinking about some of those Digital photography for dummies books




Anyone have good experience with this?

i think the best way is to either take photography classes, workshops, or just do research by yourself and experiment, also it might help to talk to other photographers locally or get into a group where you can do projects, help each other improve, etc.
