bought some equipment yesterday, and had some fun with it. Here's a simple shot. Only RAW editing and sharpening.

that's my friend there lol I think im loving the effect of this. The setup 1 light from the front and the back light is from a street light.

its nice !!
like the effect too !

**i need you help , please msn at night tonight

it'll be more nicer if every action can be seen clearly.
nice attempt though!

i've always wanted to try strobe, but my sb-600 wont let me

i wonder whats the new equipment? another speedlight and ste2?

its the street light lah

but from the looks of it, the light came from right and left.

later night ill go online, catch ya later

yeah lo, the only thing i dont like is the trousers there can see the background guess i need 1 more light to fill the front =/

U can get the cheap PT-E2 for around 160, can get cheaper also, u can trigger ur flash wirelessly with his thingy

Flash stand + 40 inch 2 in 1 umbrella, PT-E2

like i mentioned, 1 light from the front and the back light is street lights, the front light is the flash lor 580EXII on umbrella

like i predicted, trigger via transmitter. huhu... i never know there's pt e2. getting my ste2 soon for rm650

but its infrared man, the one i used sends out radio signal. Im not sure about the power of this thing, ill leave it to u to try it out

thanks


Here's 1 more just for the fun

good idea on taking shot of those skateboarders and bmx dudes, will try to do that in the future, thanks


Ops, its PT-04 my bad hehe...

hmmm, so far i've only know two place selling them, 1 is DigiColor which is located in Mutiara Complex along Jalan Ipoh. And another 1 is through EngTong. EngTong sold it expensive at 160 for a pair while Digicolor at 100 for a pair.

Its ok

I found that the PT-E2 has problems triggering the flash when the flash batteries are running low - so be careful

Also, my PT-E2s have been having delayed triggers lately. I need to set the shutter above 1/30 otherwise it closes before the flash fires. I have no idea why, and I'm using first shutter curtain on both the camera and flash.
