Granted, they are not the best batteries to use but at my first elaborate indoor family event, that's all I could muster up and after about a hundred shots, I had to put the flash away because it took 40 seconds to recycle and I was missing too many shots.
I used a fresh set, and was shooting in P-TTL. At one point, I even bumped up the ISO to 400 on my K20D hoping it would reduce the flash power down enough to increase recycle times but that didn't help much.
At the same event, someone else with a D90 and SB-600 was gunning away like every other second.
I haven't done a lot of work with flash photography but after reading quite a bit I figured I'd let the camera tell the flash what and how much to do, and relied on P-TTL. A fair chunk of the photos I was able to take came out okay but its the missed shots that I feel bad about.
Besides the batteries, what else could have been done? Battery pack, a different flash?
