You can also use manual mode on the camera (leave the flashes on ETTL) and then just underexpose the background a bit. The flashes will automatically throw the proper amount of light on your subject.

Give it a shot and let me know how it goes!

I like to do the whole “drop the background 2 stops” and light the foreground….

So can I do the camera in manual and use the flashes in auto?

I am embarrassed to ask…
