To each his own, but each undeniably has it's own uses. Specifically, I wouldn't consider using a Profoto or comparable unit on location without an assistant or two. OTOH, I've used one or two White Lightning Ultras on location solo on numerous occasions. In the studio it's another matter of course, but I don't think that was the thrust of the original question. - -- Rolfe Tessem rolfe@ldp.com Lucky Duck Productions, Inc. - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
