So a year or so ago I bought some used studio equipment from a local photographer who was having his studio auctioned off (he decided after 30+ years in the industry it was time to turn his business into a hobby again). Anyway I've got theses light sets and I figure it's time to really use them (crap or get off the pot. right?) So I come to you guys for advice on which set to keep and which set or items to sell. Now some would say keep all of them but I'd like to get some other equipmet. I want to sell a set and use the money to buy maybe a nice tripod or put toward a set of alien bees in the future.
So here's what I've got.
The first setup which I'm leaning toward keeping is:
A Photogenic co. 600 W.S. power unit with full and 1/2 power switch, built in slave trigger.
-(which won't work with my 30d or 40d
-power cord
-umbrella head ext cord
-BG light ext cord
-1- umbrella head w/ umbrella and stand
-1- 11" pan light w/ diffuser and bar doors and stand
-1 6" BG light with barndoors and stand
-1- quick change light w/ 11x36Larson soft box and stand and bowl reflector?
The second set which I'm leaning toward sellin is:
Photegenic co. 400 W.S. power unit with plug in slave trigger, on a rolling umbrella head stand.
-1- umbrella head w/ umbrella
-1- 11" pan light w/ diffuser, barndoors w/ stand
-1 - 6" BG light w/ barndoors and stand
And then I have a
1- Paul C Buff White Lightning 10,000 cps Studio Flash w/ stand and umbrella, sync cord (doesn't work w/ my cameras), 1/3, 2/3 and full power modes.
So what should I keep and what should I keep and why? How much should I try to seel it for? Keep in mind that i need this to be a set to learn w/ untill I can get a new setup. I do want to sell some this to buy some other equipment and will eventually sell it all to replace it with a new simpler set.
Any help is appreciated.
Sorry about the crappy pictures
