@MillCityJam Thanks! I'm using a Giottos MT-9251 Tripod with a Manfrotto Ballhead. I don't remember which ballhead model it is but I don't think they make/sell it anymore. It cost about $100.00.
Mark - great video...since that day I attended your lighting class (at Will's house), I have been impressed with your natural ability as a teacher...keep the videos coming.
@MarioCastillion Good question! ETTL is not that devil that most people make it out to be. I get fairly consistent results using it. Most of the time when I bounce off surfaces I typically dial +1 stop of flash compensation and I'm good to shoot all day long. I tend to use ETTL more when I'm moving around. When I do stationary studio setups. I typically use manual mode because I don't want the exposure to change from shot to shot. Just to keep things simple I chose to use ETTL on this video.
cool video man.

Hi, Mark.
Why not use the 430EXII in manual mode instead of ETTL?
