- Photos OK to edit
I've read through Strobist, watched the tutorials. I've googled and researched, searched the forums, but I just don't get it!
I think I've decided that the to take my photography up a level, I'm going to need to learn proper lighting techniques.
I would really love and appreciate some help figuring out exactly what equipment I need for an off-camera setup, to be used with my Canon rebel. I'd love to be able to have "on-location" lighting - I'd like to be able to take them with me outside, away from electrical outlets. I thought what I needed was speedlights w/ softboxes and stands (none of which I currently own), but I don't know how to trigger them. I though what I needed was PocketWizards, but I read something along the way that was to the contrary.
I really appreciate any help I can get. Please excuse my lack of knowledge in this department.
