Studio Lighting Photo
photo studio lighting?
I’m setting up an in-home photo studio and am on a budget. What lights do i absolutely need/where could I find them besides ebay or adorama? I have ordered b&h photo and another photography magazine that sell equipment is it a good idea to buy from these zines or is it normally overpriced?
BHPhoto has (generally) the best prices for new equipment.
Check out http://www.amvona.com Don’t buy from the website, find their ebay auctions, they go for a lot less. It’s great quality for the price. I use their tripod and umbrellas (shoot thru and softbox umbrellas) and I am happy with them. I couple those with some light stands (ebay), flash/umbrella holders (ebay), and two Vivitar 285HVs (ebay)
Then get some sync cables, a splitter, and you’re set.
Use a grey card ($4) for cheap white balancing. Blur it and use it as a white balance point for your pictures in that setting.
If you want to spend a little more, look at http://www.alienbees.com for their products. Again, very good quality for the low price.
