Why Phottix Atlas Fl...

I’ve been using the Phottix Atlas triggers now for well over a year and I’m loving them. I know why so many others use them too with their studio strobes. They are affordable and offer reliability and performance. Unfortunately they only have it in the 433mhz frequency version...

Custom BeyerDynamics DT-880 600ohm Feb03

Custom BeyerDynamics...

Finally my BeyerDynamic headphones arrived from Germany. I ordered the “Manufaktur” ones which allow you to specify bits and pieces of the headphone in whatever colour you desire. You can select from 32/250/600 ohm impedance. I went the 600 and ended up having to turn up the gain...

Balancing Ambient

I think the biggest issue with people who start their “Off Camera Flash (OCF)” journey is balancing with ambient or deciding on which f/stop to use. Without a doubt the most common question I see asked at strobist meets and on forums is “How do you know what f/stop to...

Mola Setti + Grid

Being in the studio is not really where I prefer to be but this year I’m aiming to do more studio stuff. Anyway, on to the important stuff. Mola Setti + Honeycomb Grid. I opted for the 15 degree grid, nice and tight. Being such a big dish already the spread of light was great already so...

Leica S2, Quick Flir...

I’m not for a minute going to claim I know anything about medium format cameras, let alone digital MF stuff. What I do know is that the Leica S2 is an awesome camera! I was given the opportunity by the Leica distributor in Australia to give the S2 a “test drive” so to speak....

The Girl with the Dr...

Watched this tonight. For some reason I thought it was about some Russian spy LOL. The move starts slow before it draws you in. I enjoyed it but I think I was expecting bit more action and stuff from it. Won’t spoil it for those who haven’t seen it…..I’d recommend you go

Review Update: Elinc...

Don’t worry, I haven’t gone insane and decided to write another review of the Ranger RX. Just an update on how I am finding the pack and head after about 2 years of using it. Everyone likes to review things when they are new so here’s some “after thought” on the...
