The impact of a lightsource, that is independant from the ambient light,
and which is fully under control of the photographer, has not been changed.
A good photograph needs good and interesting lighting at first ... the
importance of contemporary equippment is vastly exaggerated.
So, albeit it takes its time to get used to a flash (especially an off-camera-flash)
the time invested in learning the essentials really pays back.
