Henry: using the kind of equipment you mentioned in
your prior post, I'd agree with you. But the original
question had to do with 35mm body and a couple of EOS
shoe mount flashes. I remain unconvinced that, with
that equipment, it would be possible get adequate DOF
to shoot more than three, or maybe 4, row deep.
