I set up to take a few pics at maximum telephoto, about 450mm equivalent. Since the light is rarely very good, I have started using a fill flash on most pics. However, the distance of about 50 feet rendered the camera's flash useless. I dug out my old hot shoe flash and my slave unit, set them up at about 8 feet from the scratch grain I had placed at the target area.
It seems to work very well when placed to prevent flash shadows from showing.
It is simple, but requires some care setting up. It should be in line with the camera in order to avoid double shadows. I haven't used it for at least 10 years.
