Arrow My (almost) newly acquired piece(s)!
So I ordered this last night!!! I'm so very excited!!! I will arrive soon and I can't wait to start playing with it!

I have a photo session with a woman who found me through a contest I am having on facebook, I'm going to be photographing her 6 month old and am looking forward to it!!! :-D Yay!!!

*Does a happy dance* Just thought I'd share my excitement (that and get other's thoughts on the set... lol but as mu husband says, "No negative feedback, we already bought it" lol )

Those 40 WS bulbs aren't really going to put out enough light and watch the tightening knobs on the stands, they have a tendency to break or strip. But they will do in pinch, I guess.

Agree. I had a set of 150 WS many decades ago.

This one looks like the CAD$45 Opus M series SLAVE monolight (the main flash is 100 WS with modeling light). The whole Opus kit 100WS+40WS with umbella & stands cost ~CAD$370.
