[QUOTE="WhiteLight, post: 278472, member: 9556"] So!!! After a super long wait, here it is... The whole idea started with getting a low cost solution to see what it was i wanted to do..but then after reading around i figured, sooner or later i would want a 'better' system. This moved from the regular ad-hoc setups from various eBay/Chinese sites to Paul C Buff's Alien Bees Didn't work out for me cos there is no presence outside the USA & the price that i would have had to pay even considering zero issues was not very economical. If something had gone wrong, i would have to pay shipping costs from here to USA centres. Thus, i decided to make a bold move & go in to a system that would support me for life. i really don't like the idea of spending some & then investing again to improve... So, cutting the story short, here is my studio gear: 1) [U][B]Elinchrom Style RX 600[/B][/U] (2) [ATTACH=CONFIG]77872._xfImport[/ATTACH] [B][URL="http://www.elinchrom.com/product/Style-RX-600.html"]LINK[/URL][/B] 2) [U][B]Skyport System [/B][/U]This comprises of 1 Skyport Speed Transmitter, 2 Speed RX Transceivers, 1 Universal receiver (extra, for SB700) & I USB MKII [ATTACH=CONFIG]77873._xfImport[/ATTACH] [B][URL="http://www.elinchrom.com/product/EL-Skyport-System.html#content"]LINK[/URL] 3) [U]Elinchrom Rotalux 100cm Deep Octa[/U] [/B][ATTACH=CONFIG]77874._xfImport[/ATTACH] [URL="http://elinchrom.com/product/Rotalux-Softbox-Deep-Octa-100.html"][B]LINK[/B][/URL] 4)[B][U]Elinchrom Rotalux 50x130cm Softbox[/U] [/B][ATTACH=CONFIG]77875._xfImport[/ATTACH] [URL="http://elinchrom.com/product/Rotalux-Softbox-50x130.html"][B]LINK[/B][/URL] 5) [U][B]Elinchrom Softlite White Reflector 70cm Beauty Dish (White)[/B][/U]with Diffuser Sock [ATTACH=CONFIG]77876._xfImport[/ATTACH] [URL="http://elinchrom.com/product/Softlite-Reflector-64-70-silver.html#content"][B]LINK[/B][/URL] 6) [U][B]Elinchrom Reflector 21cm [/B][/U] [ATTACH=CONFIG]77877._xfImport[/ATTACH] [B]with Full Grid Kit[/B] [ATTACH=CONFIG]77878._xfImport[/ATTACH] [B]Barn Door [/B][ATTACH=CONFIG]77880._xfImport[/ATTACH] [B]And Snoot & Grid Kit[/B] [ATTACH=CONFIG]77881._xfImport[/ATTACH] 7) [U][B]Elinchrom PolyStand[/B][/U] [ATTACH=CONFIG]77882._xfImport[/ATTACH] [URL="http://www.elinchrom.com/product/Polystand.html"][B]LINK[/B][/URL] That's about it.. By far, this has been the most expensive investment i've ever made, but i think this will serve me well for any & every situation that i may come across. i want to take a moment to thank MANY friends here who answered many queries of mine, specially @[URL="http://nikonites.com/member.php?u=12496"]WayneF[/URL] & @[URL="http://nikonites.com/member.php?u=6573"]gqtuazon[/URL] who were REALLY patient helping me out. i don't think i would have learned the basics of lighting or the differences in equipment if it hadn't been the good nature of very many people here.. thank you :) It took me a very long time to understand lighting, what was needed, choosing the system etc. Elinchrom has a good presence in India, so with the worldwide name the brand carries, it was a good system to invest into. did i say i was frigging flipping out looking at my gear???!!!!
