Hi, I've had my Nikon CoolPix 8700 since 2004 and loved it. However I recently brought a Bower SFD 728N Digital AutoFocus Flashgun and the photos are horrible.
1) they're out of focus and the colors appear to be infuenced by incandescent lighting in that the photos are faded. I did a test shoot without the flash and the photos were fine. With the flash, same thing. I'm thinking now that it's maybe a wrong setting. I have the settings to "Indoor party setting" I know I have to do some more testing on all setttings. I was wondering if anyone else was having this problem? Mabe my 8700 needs a firmware update or something? This is driving me crazy. Anybody have any answers?
