Well I'm holding the PW's. YAY!... I screwed up and didn't get the right hot shoe adapter for my 430EX. Needed one with a PC to Male 3.5mm jack cord. Have a cord that's PC to PC... I've tested them at least lol, and know the PW's will work...

On another note, the don't seem to be as solidly constructed as I would have though. A bit loose when sitting in the camera's hot shoe. Ah well..


I'm now looking for a shoot through umbrella, lightstand and a clamp thingy (to connect it all...rite?). What advice do you guys have on those? Hell, if i can get those via MPEX then I could tack the Strobist DVD on as well.

I am using crappy umbrellas and light stands I have are from Hong Kong. not bad for the money I paid (I think $50 for light stand, clamp and umbrella? And this was when the exchange rate is NOWHERE near as good as it is today) but I will probably invest in something better if I do more off-camera work.

I'm selling my Strobist kit in about a week - check out the SP1 kit for info as to what's in it. Stand, swivel, Vivitar flash, all that jazz.
