Yes I will love them for it... but that doesn't make waiting for stuff any easier . Backdrop stand came in yesterday and it was awesome. But I can't do anything until my strobes and umbrellas come in.

If you're lucky, you'll get it today.... for some reason, I get pretty lucky and get my stuff in earlier... like for instance, I didn't expect my stands to come in till friday.

I just ordered one yesterday... among other camera stuffs.
The wait can be painful. >.< That's why I prefer buying stuff from a physical store so I get the product right away. But some things I just don't want to pay quadruple price or they just simply don't sell them here.

The nearest camera store is about an hour away and the product is way over priced. I called the store and they were have a special deal on those diffusers... only $75.99... I bought mines off of amazon for $59.40 (shipping $4.95)... :|

Similar price in Ebay too. Here in Finland I haven't seen them being sold anywhere. But if they did I'm guessing it would be over 75€ since that's the way it usually goes here. Dollar prices are converted to euros by changing the currency symbol. >.<
