Hi there
I have some basic portaflash lights, one with a stand and umbrella. I need another tall stand and another umbrella and ideally a softbox too. A guy I work with has just bought 2 Nikon camera flashes which he now uses instead of his flashes, but he still uses the stands, umbrellas etc. I quite like this idea (no cable is a good thing), but I still need the stand, soft box etc. Given that it will cost me a fair bit to get the stands, I am tempted to buy a proper kit, and then buy the Nikon flashes as well. OK, so a little convoluted, but my question is this, can anybody recommend a good kit? I need it to be as light as possible, reasonable compact (I take them to weddings), ideally have a soft box (but I can buy that separately), and not too expensive (£300-500, so $500-900). Any ideas?
Many thanks
Helen
