I am also new to using speedlights and my local camera shop recommended a radio controlled unit specific to my camera type - light is a Nissin Di700A with an Air Commander controller which goes into the hot shoe of the camera, leaving you free to place the light anywhere and pointing in any direction you choose.

Here is a shot using just that one speedlight - not a particularly great shot, but I was pleased that I got the adjustable power settings such that it illuminated the dark triangular rafters as natural light would - with the radio controller on the camera it makes adjusting power on the speedlight a snap.

The test of using flash well, is that the image ends up looks naturally lit. Liked my first Nissin so much have just bought a second! Not as high powered as the Godox pro units, but easy to learn and control.

Thx for showing an actual set up.
This seems to be always lacking. Get a lot of jabber but showing an actual set up is worth a thousand words as they say.
Greatly appreciated.
Wish there were less jabber and more examples shown of the set up when topics like this are discussed.
Thank you again.

A good education for using both on and off camera flash can be found here on one of his many tutorials. IMO, he is a master of both techniques.
