Everything (scanner, camera, lighting) is the same as before, except that I use the 50 'cron exclusively whereas before I used the 35 'lux ASPH a lot. The last set I did with on-convention Studio light was back in last October and I definitely got a lot of misses with the lighting because a) it was the first time I used the Studio flash with so many different people and I didn't change the aperture to compensate the varying tone/color of the costumes.e.g. the whites were burning out a lot. I had a few pics with exposure problems this time but the problem is very very small, and b) this is inside a hotel and there are some ambient light. Last time it was outdoor with practically no other light source. // richard (This email is for mailing lists. To reach me directly, please use richard@imagecraft.com)
