Trying out my new 5' octabox

Just picked up an Amvona 5' octabox off of ebay and thought I would take it for a quick spin.

I don't know much about studio lighting...that thing is huge!

The shot looks fairly well exposed, but it appears to me as though the light coming from each side is a different colour. On the right it is a bright clear white, on the left side it seems warmer and more towards yellow/orange.

Looks like a lot of fun to set up!

Looks nice, I've got to get me one of those.

Very good Shooterman.

As always you have the perfect model.

I can't wait to see the octabox in the glam section.

I am looking at getting a similar set up at the moment to yourself.The light on the left is that to fit a beauty dish too?

Nice shot Randy. So ebay, huh? I may have to get me one of those. Did you use a beefier stand, or weight down the kit stand?

That would take up half my living room. Great shot & very pretty lady!

haha i love it! the two shot series. lol she seems like she could be a bit at un-ease in the first photo, then u scroll to the second and see here standing as a tiny object inbetween a series of lighting and a HUGE light box on her right haha.

cool stuff tho dude! was it affordable on ebay?

Randy, That is too cool! I love the effect and as always, you have the perfect model. Also, looking forward to seeing you put it to good use in G+N ! I hope your wife is not afraid of that thing falling on her head.

Wow that thing is huge!

Randy, I have the d-lite4 kit and was wondering how you attach it. Do you have to make a mod on the speedring?

Even with shipping this works out much cheaper than anything we buy for in the UK.

fine- show off!!! And everyone is going to clean out Amvona and Fomex now. Tell Brenda nice work. Your side of it was just aw-ight...
