New Camera Gear
Yep- end of year spending- at least thats my excuse…
I have been doing a lot of reading on a method of photography called “Strobist.” Essentially people that use their speedlites in lieu of a portable lighting kit like a 7B kit or something like that. Its a way of moving the light away from the camera and getting very interesting results. Here is a link to the blog that started it all… strobist.blogspot.com
Here is what I got:
PocketWizard Ultra II Transcievers x2
Westcott 43″ Shoot Through Umbrella x2
Manfrotto 001B Nano 6′ Lightstands x2
Manfrotto 026 SWIVEL UMBRELLA ADAPTR x2
Manfrotto FLASH SHOE f/MAGIC ARM x2
Paramount MINIPHON -HOT SHOE FEMALE
Oh- and 1 item for my video gear- a SOLID head for my tripod:
Manfrotto 501HDV PRO FLUID VIDEO HEAD
All kinds of new gear that will change the way I am able to take photos… SOOOOOO excited to get out there and use it… I already had a chance to use the stands and Pocketwizard on the Motoworks Shoot- I don’t know how I have been a photographer for this long and not had them in my gear bag…
The same day I also got another shipment- a new Forum Lander 160 snowboard from Sierrasnowboard.com for $200 shipped! What a steal- time to head up to mammoth!
