Nice shots, Bill. How did you light the locations shots? Are the two shots in front of the backdrop in your studio? I love the SG-60 screen and, like you, have found the grid to be a tremendous aid. Just having it there is a good reminder to check your verticals and horizontals. And the brightness is a great assett. It's really been valuable with the 400/5.6. Paul
