[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 197898, member: 12496"] I realize everything has to be dumbed down today, but watt seconds easily explains why a 75 watt second speedlight is 37.5 times more light than 2 watt seconds continuous lights. That is more than 5 stops, lots more aperture and shutter speed, which comes in really handy, the difference between can and can't. Homework is good, but there sure are a lot of people that would strongly disagree about "one" speedlight. Esp all the wedding photographers selling pictures. To substitute for a $50 ebay kit? IMO, that's the last thing needed, just an expensive frill. I have two SB-800 and four Alienbees (and no PocketWizards), and sure, more gear is good and versatile, but one speedlight can do a lot. We have to start somewhere. We should not discourage starting. [/QUOTE]
