Yes it is. The camera was tethered to the computer so when you press the shutter, the image goes right to the hard drive of the computer instead of to a card in the camera.

Frankly, I don't know that much about them. All I know is the Bee's are cheap and they work for me. Same is true for me with the Novatrons.

And I'd rather put my money into L-Glass!

This sort of stuff is really valuable to complete newcomers to studio lighting and setup. I haven't seen the like anywhere else. It would be great if more guys shared more pictures like this. Many thanks.

Vidiot,

That looks like the bridge to the Starship Enterprise, LOL. Is that all for video editing? Speaking of which, have any of the photogs here actually considered adding this as a product with your company? Assuming you're doing weddings full time.

So here is what everyone should do when taking portrait pics as this is a learning place and I think this idea would benefit the meaning of this forum:

Everytime you engage in photo shoot, take your pics. Then at the end of shoot, take one shot of the entire studio and your model in it and post that picture as well.

I think a lot of us would learn from that!

Ceiling mount is awesome! You do have to get accustomed to it but it's worth it! I can't imagine going back to floor stands for lights. When I go on-site, I hate dealing with them.

Have a question, while on the subject of studios..... What are you guys using to hold reflectors? I have a small boom and a two-clip boom to hold the larger 5-in-1's (5x3 foot) vertically. I am not happy with the boom I use for holding the smaller round reflectors. I'd like something that would allow me to secure the smaller (3 foot) round reflectors at any angle. What do you all use that you like?
