Hi there,
I'm looking to upgrade my lighting setup (modifier and stands), to allow me to get into portraits, both at home and outside.
At the moment I currently have:
5 in 1 circular reflector
Standard shoot through umbrella
80cm octabox
2x cheap light stands
Unfortunately the light stands I have are pretty useless, especially with the large octabox (unstable due to base), so can't be used outside. Ideally I'd like to get a couple of speed light compatible soft boxes, than can be modified with say a grid, and can be compacted down for travel if needed.
Any recommendations? Budget - ~£250 for a couple of stands and a couple of modifiers, and maybe something to hold a reflector?
Thanks, Grant
