I've been playing with the ttl setup on the G9 and the DS-125 and in TTL mode, it seems like the flash is firing way too hot. I set the white balance at arm length when I get in the area where the pictures will be, then when I get in on a close subject, set the camera and focus, then when I take the shot, the picture is mostly whited out. When I turn the strobe down to 1/8 instead of ttl, it seems to be more well adjusted. Otherwise when I do ttl mode, I set the camera to way underexpose (short shutter time with small aperature) and the pictures come out with better color. I tried to adjust the flash settings in the menu, but they appear to be grayed out when in ttl mode. I'll admit to being a mental midget with photography, but am willing to learn. Any help someone can offer would be appreciated.
