Great idea. I hope this takes off and I equally hope I can keep up while chasing a six month old around.
My lighting set up is:
- 2ea. Vivitar 285HV flashes
- 2ea. Interfit 8ft light stands with LumoPro LP679 Umbrella Swivels.
- 2ea. Westcott White Shoot-thru 42" umbrellas
- 1ea. Westcott Silver/Black Reflector umbrella
- Cactus V2s Transmitter and 2 receivers (I'm cheap too right now)
- HonlPhoto SpeedStrap w/ 5" Snoot, Gobo/Flag & Gel kit
- Pentax tabletop flash stand
- Roscoe Gel Sampler pack (5x7" sheets)
- Gaffer tape and some bongo ties
I basically started with the
Starving Student Wireless Strobist Kit from MPEX and doubled up on a few things.
I have made it through the first couple main sections of Lighting102 but got bogged down a bit due mostly to a lack of space to set up. I cleared out (reclaimed) the garage/workshop this past weekend and am eager to get strobing again.
