Adobe Flash Question:
You understand from the SB-25 manual that the built-in, retractable bounce card is meant for use with the flash head in a vertical position?

Answer:
I do (this is true of the SB-24, SB-25, SB-26, SB-28/28DX, SB-80DX). That's because it helps keep a little light from being lost, but more importantly, it provides just a bit of catchlight in the subject's eyes (the bounce directly off the card).
