That is an excellent deal. Bruce is responsible for many things but I think I may have turned the tables on him recently :-)

Before I knew it, I was walking out with two fairly nice pneumatic-type light stands, two Studio Systems SPS920 AC studio strobes (http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/246869-REG/SP_Studio_Systems_SPS920_9 20_AC_Strobe_Series.html), two umbrellas (white and black) and a 6' flash sync cable. I went in expecting to spend about $50-$75 and ended up spending $200. I feel like I got a pretty damned good deal, though. It was a display setup, of which the carrying bag had faded on one side from sitting in direct sun in the storefront window. I really couldn't afford it, but I felt like I couldn't afford to let the opportunity pass. Everything seems to be of reasonably good build quality, and the strobes/modeling lights all checked out before I left the store with them. Now, if I can just find some good studio space . . . and some extremely hot models. I blame Bruce for all of this, of course. -- Walt -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
