    Recommendation for friend who wants to do her own wedding album

    I've sent her some of the recommendations! From the ones posted and the ones open to her I think aperture books looks the best? For the price, blurb looks decent too! Thanks everyone for your help

    Recommendation for friend who wants to do her own wedding album

    Yeah, she's using a proper photographer, but I think the quoted price for an album was a silly price! She's not on that tight a budget and will most likely get it done in the months following her wedding. I'm guessing places like blurb are not up to par then?

    HELP: Studio light not flashing

    Yeah I took delivery of a new Calumet one yesterday. It's just annoying that it breaks when nothing has happened to it, never dropped, used regularly, always kept in the bag etc.

    HELP: Studio light not flashing

    It's weird, when you first turn the head on it flashes but then will not flash anymore. This happens everytime. The modelling light doesn't dim when you press the test button and the unit was used the day before and before that was about 2-3 weeks prior The flash tube is fine as it works in...

    HELP: Studio light not flashing

    I have 3 x Interfit ex150 mkiii and so far they have performed well for my needs. However yesterday I set them up for some product photography ready for today. All worked fine, so I switched them off correctly and went to bed. I got up this morning and turned them on, model lights etc came on...

    Yn622n with studio lights (and nikon sb flash too)

    The studio lights will need a PC lead to attach your 622n and then the other one will sit on your camera. Studio lights aren't all that different in setup so you should be fine.

    which softbox for SB910

    I got the ishoot 80cm one from ebay that I thought was very good. Umbrella style too so easy to put up and down. The Cotswold ones aren't bad either but I preferred the mounting style of the others

    best way to light a lastolite hilite

    I use the f8/f11 method and it works for me. I use 2 x studio strobes in my hilite but wondered how others place them? I've tried all sorts...pointing to opposite back corner, one high one low, both pointing each other etc. I also put a reflector on each light. How do others place them to get...
