So I'm looking at getting into sutdio photography and lighting, also for night shoots of cars.
I know that Alien bees are the way to go, but I'm not sure if I want to dish out a bunch of money on them yet, being that I am a noob to lighting and need some practice.
Are there any cheaper alternatives (albeit effective) to AB's?
I've also been hearing that speedlite's are good and I have been able to source a couple 420/430's for a good price, but are they as effective as hot lights?
What do you guys recommend for a beginner?
edit: i noticed in the intro section, there is a thread for this lol, but hopefully someone can reply in here. my bad
