Where’s Team Phottix now? Shanghai! Team Phottix is taking part in Photo & Image Shanghai 2011 – a giant photography tradeshow that draws dealers and photo enthusiasts from around the world.
The Phottix Strato II Multi 5-in-1 Wireless Trigger was released almost three weeks ago and has been selling like gangbusters. The newest 2.4 GHz. flash trigger and wired/wireless remote is a hit with both professional photographers and amateurs. Who has reviewed them?
Photo Trade Secrets released two books late last year: Strobist Photo Trade Secrets Volume 1 – Expert Lighting Techniques and Strobist Photo Trade Secrets Volume 2 – Portrait Lighting Techniques. Being a photographer is about constant learning. Education plus inspiration: These books offer both.
You’re into the Strobist movement – you have flashes, triggers, and a box full of DIY light modifiers. Hard light, softlight? That all depends on your subject. Soft light is often used for portraits. It’s flattering and dreamy, and makes your subjects look their best.
