[QUOTE="hark, post: 779250, member: 13196"] You're welcome. Here are a couple other things to consider. If you find yourself using the bare bulbs a lot (they work very well in softboxes), you might be interested in the bulb cover to protect the bulb when traveling unless you continually remove the bare bulb head every time you finish using it.

It's a personal preference dependent upon desired results. One that is popular but expensive is the Cheetah Colt 45. Yet there are other companies that offer very similar reflectors. Below is a video rundown of some reflectors, but the list certainly isn't comprehensive. The info is just something for you to peruse as you dip your toe into the world of off camera flash. ;) The only other thing I can think of that might be a necessity is a bumper for the back of the AD200 - especially if you purchased the non-Pro model.
