I have done a few paid photo shoots for my friends / co-workers. The last couple of times I shot in RAW, converted to TIFF using Adobe Lightroom, then burned the uncompressed images on CD's for the client. At 8.2MP the TIFF files are probably much larger then they will ever need/use, and the...
Has anyone here had any experience with Britek equipment? I'm looking to purchase (notice I didn't use "invest in") an affordable studio flash setup, and I've seen quite a few Britek ads in the magazines and also on eBay.
