Does anyone know of a "backlight" setting for the AF-360? A buddy of mine uses a Nikon speedlight and it has a setting just for backlit photos. I have read through the manual for the AF-360 and I don't find anything.

As far as I'm aware, there's no dedicated function, but you can definitely set the flash to a weaker setting when shooting backlit photos.

Thanks Adam. I will try to practice a little more with using my flash manually.
