Scott Kelby's Lighting Gear Week
on Wednesday May 14 2008 - 14:02:22 | by leeScott Kelby had a lighting gear week where he talked about various lighting equipment he recomends. He starts from the inexpensive hotshoe flash units like the Canon 430EX or Vivitars that we use at strobist groups, right up to the pro quality continuous lighting in studio and on location strobes. It is split across 5 posts: Day 1 Wedding/Portrait Location Lighting Setup (on a Budget), Day 2 talks about more inexpensive must have equipment. (Just forget about the word 'budget' from here on!) Day 3 Moving into the studio, continous lighting. Day 4 Pro quality studio flash. Day 5 Shooting on location. Then there is some follow up, Scott answers readers' questions.

Raptor Release Report
on Sunday May 04 2008 - 19:15:11 | by lee
Saturday was an almost perfect day. Sun was out, clear sky, bit of a chill to the wind. It was a very big turn out. I actually ran into a couple fellow photogs I knew from other events I had been to. I wasn't sure what to expect at this event as this was my first time to it. What I saw was quite impressive. The stars of the show did not make an appearence until 1:00, as they wanted them to have as little exposure to people as possible.
