What size would you recommend I start with? To be honest I have now ordered a 120cm/48" Octabox from Amazon https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00UTNYPIG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Depending on your response I may well get a smaller one as well. I also bought the dome for...

That is what I thought lol. I think I will go with the beauty dish after this conversation. Thanks again:plus1:

I am assuming you mean (sb)Softbox. That is on my list to purchase. Previously I have only ever used on camera flash so your advice is much appreciated:) I can't decide whether to buy a collapsible beauty dish / softbox or just buy a softbox. These are the options I am looking at...

I have the Pika200 (Godox AD200) which comes with two heads. One has a bare bulb and the other looks like a flash head --- see link https://www.essentialphoto.co.uk/product/pixapro-pika200-portable-battery-powered-ttl-mini-flash/

I have just bought the Pika200 which is a UK rebranded version of the Godox AD200. I have only been using it for a few days but am really happy with the results.. The reason I bought from PixPro? It is a few pounds cheaper than the Godox and comes with a 2 year UK warranty. Godox doesn't have...

Thanks everyone:). These are some photos of my mother taken yesterday whilst testing out my new 85mm f/1.8

Hi, I am new to participating in forums and, if I am honest lack the confidence in showing my images. I have enjoyed photography since the age of 17 when I bought my first DSLR, a Canon AE-1 Program (35mm Film). I first ventured into digital photography with the Canon 350D when it was...
