[288] Still learning more about flash photography and lighting but, this kit made things less overwhelming. It's simple...2 mono lights, 2 32 Octa soft boxes, one stand and one boom stand and a 16 channel light trigger. All accessories like speed rings for mounting your soft lights and of course the mesh screens for your lights as well. The advantage of having a boom light is really great. It spreads the light even for any of my product photography sessions. The additional soft light adds to the mood perfectly. Using a Canon EOS T7 I found the included trigger does work with it. 5

[2012] Very informative and easy to read and understand. With any book about photography people need to understand no matter if the book is 10 yrs old or 10 days old the exposure triangle, white balance, shutter speed maintains the same principles. The tecniques in this book are explained and provides images and settings. Also the author offers assignments for practice. If you're an advanced Landscape/nature photographer you will know most if not all the material coverded. That said, This book may be easier for someone to understand and actually learn something that you did'nt learn from a hard to follow book full of one liners. 5

[Teri Campbell] If you bought the Z6, you WILL need something more than the supplied users guide. This book is a great choice! Not only does the book describe all the features and settings on the Z6, but explains WHY you would want to select each setting. 5

[Teri Campbell] I picked this up on sale to go with my new 36 octagonal Softbox. Though I haven't used it for a shoot yet, I did test it with my Nikon D850 and wireless flash transmitter. It worked perfectly. This is my first experience with something other than an on-camera flash. I'm looking forward to using it soon for some head shots. 5

[288] I have been photographing since the 1950's for fun and profit. College photographer, US Army photographer, US Army Corps of Engineers photographer, small town wedding photographer, weekly newspaper sports photographer and now just fine art. Mostly on a second job basis. Nature, wildlife, and travel photography have always been a second interest.This book is as complete, understandable, comprehensive (for the film to digital crossover like me), and well illustrated as you can find. It will be a fun read as well as reference book from now on. Right on Sean! 5

James	23/04/2024
[Teri Campbell] Combined with Impact 7' parabollic, no light modifier, I thought it was great. Lit up everything nicely with what looked to me to be a good shadow fall off and nice eye high lights. Great combination that I'm glad I bought. 5

[288] It's as good as natural light, allowing us to run our business at anytime of the day or night. Initially, we thought we needed more - maybe accessories or a brighter bulb, but Nope, it's perfect! 5
