I'am shooting a wedding in November and i need

1 portable power source for my strobe or
2 cheap mini battery operated strobe or
3 an set up for a off camera flash and soft box

my current flash's are as follows

metz 45 cl d hammerhead and a cannon speedlite 540ez

if i can use the two flashes together,
how?
the metz is set up for side of camera witch is ok because i can have a umbrella set up to reflect the flash if i wish as for the speedlite (canon) i don't mind using it as a manual flash.



if i can get the two flashes working in sync what wireless trigger will i need
i have one from ebay but how do i sync it up to the camera as their is on sync jack on the flash.

Welcome to the forum earl

James

you should be able to lasso the area and then you will get marching ants around it and then you can treat the hightlights

James

Your best ever tip

Whether it's take an extra shot to try this and that lens to try that filter what was your best ever tip

ps hope Whether is correct

james

yes when I have a AVATAR still haven't decided on one yet

James

when I'm on holiday I will set my alarm and go out for two or so hours and then return and get on with the rest of my holiday.

for the evening i make sure the family is sorted out then i go out for some alone time with my camera.

this work's well with my family because it doesn't put them out.

James

I think you are doing well

Maybe do some research on the area you wish to develop and inspiration will follow I for one will see a photo i like and will try to mimic it. and then before long you will find it comes more natural. Great photo's aren't easy if it was there would be more pro-photog out there.

this is just my view

James

please explain why would black vinyl be problematic

James

I am setting up my studio supplied by a friend and I have a question

I have some white BG in vinyl, paper and even in muslin but i have never used the vinyl I was put off using it because a fellow photog said I don't use it because it's to shiny ( is this true) should i stay away from vinyl the reason i ask is i want to buy it in black as i find the muslin to thin
and i will use black paper for studio work in the home
