Did a photoshoot with my sister today. Finally got to use the stuff I got last week! Didn't have any batteries though so I could only take a few shots with the batteries left inside my strobes >.>


This is my budget strobist kit so far. SB600, YN460II, RF-602s to trigger them and some stands and backdrops. Need to upgrade a few things though :P

No. Not enough power unless you're shooting static subjects.

I like it a lot, I haven't really ran into any problems with it since I'm just using it as off camera strobes. To be honest, I don't really trust anything to go onto my hotshoe other than Nikon because I'm too scared of it shorting or something lol.

Might actually order another one for a third light source, but don't really want to buy another light stand, receiver, umbrella, etc. lol

What do you mean by "better"? You can get brighter lights, but the problem with bright continuous lights is that when shooting people, the lights are so bright that they tend to squint.

It was hand-held as well while walking my dog. Dog was off leash though. He's actually behind the tree/bushes on the right. You can't see him anyways. hah
