Model by Elsie

KCMO

Set up my in-home studio today. This was the only model I could find and she had the patience of Job. Learned just how much I have to learn about strobes, slaves, umbrellas, reflectors, on-camera flash, etc.

I need a manuel that says: "With MkIIN using a 580EX on-camera to fire slave strobes, THIS is how you set F/shutter/ISO, etc." "You use the Silver umbrella to get THIS look, you use Tranlucent for THIS. I spent a good hour just putzing with output on the 580. What I don't need is another book on lighting, I have enough, but something like a mentor to sit on my shoulder with MY camera and MY flash and just get me started. I'll figure out the rest AFTER I learn the basics. Oh, well, a good project in my spare time over the next 10 or 20 years.
