Thought I would share my equipment idea for others who are pondering buying new top of the line 580ex and 600 flashes.

All though certainly nothing wrong with those flashes, I just wanted to show what you could get for about the same amount of money.

1 Bolton case $45.00 shipped amazon

2 yongnuo 568ex flashes $320.00 new ebay

2 Yongnuo 460 flashes cowboy studio about $90.00

4 Yongnuo 622 transmitters ebay $180.00

total $635.00

with this setup i should be able to tackle most lighting issues. and super portable. This is mainly to help the new photographer trying to figure options for equipment with a budget.

Thanks. That makes more sense.

If I was not into photography I'd be thinking that is a still from the next mission impossible movie.
