Hey guys,
I am wanting to get into some lighting and need help on what to get. I would like to have either umbrellas or softboxes i guess. Not really sure what i need lol. Basically, i am going to be taking portraits inside and outside. Not sure what other info you might need to help answer my question. Thanks!
Adam

I have the Ezybox 24x24 and it's around $225 for the one kit. Very easy to put up and take down and you can use all off shoe flashes if you use PW or cables.

Sounds good. What about using a wireless sync with it?

That is how I do it. I have 3 PWII's and it's easy to set off the 2 flashes that way.
