Hello!
I'm in need of some assistance regarding lighting equipment. I've been doing street photography for a number of years and i'm just starting to step into studio type stuff, teach myself lighting etc. I'm trying to build a diverse portfolio.
My budget is around $1000, possibly more. I know that's not much in terms of a lighting budget but i have seen some decent (i think) lights for less. I'm guessing i'd be wanting very diffused light for most of my purposes. Portraiture + still life.
Hopefully they would be portable because i'm hoping to do some location shooting too. I'm probably only after 2 lights right now. I currently own a speed light and D300.
Some examples of what kind of lighting conditions, if possible, i'd be hoping to create -
FFFFOUND!
FFFFOUND!
I'm just wanting some advice on lights to start out with.
Is Ebay a good option? What should i be looking for?
Thank you very much for any help.
Regards
J
