[QUOTE="Mike D90, post: 265462, member: 17556"] I will have everything with me, flash, bounce cards for the flash, diffusers, brolly boxes if needed. I hope to do this with minimal studio equipment though. I am hoping a small bounce card or small diffuser attachment on my camera shoe mount flash will be enough if the light is too low. Ceilings are under 9 foot, I think, so I can use them as a bounce surface if needed. Problem is flash will not always overpower ambient/fluorescent light except for the immediate foreground. It can leave the background in a bad color and I don't want that. I am really hoping that it will be lit bright enough for my two faster lenses and I can just adjust white balance for one source. I guess I could run across the street to the Ace Hardware and just buy a 24" fluorescent strip and use it as a constant light source! :D I always shoot RAW. [/QUOTE]
