+ Control light settings from skyport transmitter on camera + Built in Skyport (add more lights with ease) + Battery Pack only ~$500.00 to power two lights (Tronix Explorer XT SE) I have compiled a list of the pros and cons of each: My search has narrowed down two brands / models which I feel will suit my needs and they are the Elinchrom BRX 500 and Bowens Gemini 500R two light kits. * My budget is $2000 AUD ($1900 USD) not including the battery pack which will be purchased later. * I have a Canon 600D with a flash sync speed of 1/200 * I am entry level, the portraits will be for fun / practice until I have the skills to commercialize. To give you an idea of the type of portraits I would like to achieve see examples here: The spaces will vary from 3m x 4m (9' x 13') to outdoors. * My use will be portraits of individuals indoors and outdoors.
* I live in Australia (so brands like AB are not available or are available but lose the affordability edge they have in the US). I'll preface the search with a bit about me and my needs. I have reading forums, reviews, posts, blogs and everything in between for the past few weeks in search of my first studio strobe kit and I would appreciate some input.
