Got the 86 and 64 about 5 weeks ago and have used them for all my shoots. Still haven't mastered them as I see light fall-off from mid calf but I love the output.

Chris,

First of all, the video is pretty cool....I enjoy seeing these behind the scenes vid. I find them not only entertaining, but educational. Now to the real point: you are getting some excellent results from the PLM's....which I am glad to see, because it means that my so-far dismal results are caused by user error ! What I am getting is light that is more specular than I want, so I keep falling back to the softbox and beauty dish. I guess I'm just gonna have to suck it up and work out the details of the PLM. It's too easy for my to just fall back to something I'm more comfortable with.


regards, george w
