  • hi where can i buy this kit?

  • @jondrax only sold in Canada

  • Your videos are really helpful! I'm new to using flash and was planning on getting a start up kit, i've seen videos of how to set up the stands and put everything together, the part i haven't seen or know about is how is everything connected to, of course i know it's all connected to a battery, is it all running on one battery or it's own for every stand? It's a dumb question but i'm in the process of learning.

  • Each light plugs into a wall socket, not a battery. Some lights will use a battery but as a starter system I would stay away from a battery system. The extra cost isn't worth it as a starter kit.

  • Thanks for the great video. Can you tell me how you would integrate the use a light meter into this scenario? I noticed that you set your camera to 125 sec, Ap 5/6. I assume you used the light meter on your camera to get the reflective light. With a light meter I think you set the ISO and then expose the flash which will give you the Ap or F stop and the shutter speed? Many thanks

  • A light meter will show you the f-stop. You set the ISO and shutter speed on the meter to the setting on your camera. You then use the flash meter to check the f-stop on your subject and background.

  • Appreciated your efforts

  • i see a puppy! hello puppy =)

  • i have opus and it sucks .....get ready for changing fuses often ....flashes need a cooling fan ...opus forgot to add fans to the lights ...damn idiot ....its ok for a little shoot ....but for shooting 100 pics in a row ...forget it ...go out and spend an exctra 100$ on a flash with a fan ...saves you trouble and money in the long run

  • thanks

    

  • thank you David for another good one.....i was concerned about the window light in the background ...but i guess it didn't matter, the results were real good....

  • this is cool,sir.. but don't you think flash and gary fong's lightsphere is not good enough for indoor lighting?

  • @morrisstudios How much is this kit cost?
