Flash Light advice needed

[Bigscottd]

I could do with a bit of advice please, im going to get myself one of the Lencarta smartflash kits (2 head kit) and was wondering what I should be looking at regarding umbrella's or softboxes or one of each?

Thanks in advance

If you can afford it, go with two soft boxes, maybe two different sizes.

I feel that, for most people and most types of photography, 1 of each is the most useful

Just another thing to bear in mind is that an excellent element of an umbrella is mobility. It's a right laugh fitting two gigantic softboxes in the back of the car! lol An umbrella doesn't cause a problem though

Lencarta does a pretty complete range of folding softboxes, that open up and fold down just like umbrellas. They take about 2 seconds to set up. Sizes go from 60x90 right up to 150cm octa.

Thanks for the advice I'm going to go for one of each.
