Foveon Strobist

Technical Notes: Actually a mixture of modeling light photos with the Canon and strobist shots with the Sigma SD14. Normally I shoot Nikon and off camera speedlights via CLS and TTL, but this time Pocket Wizard strobes and manual settings.  I prefer the creative variety that shooting CLS gives you, especially outside, like being able to shoot f/2.8 or even f/2 in the bright sun and also able to use any shutter speed to control ambient light via FP sync, but the studio way of f/8 or f/11 and pop pop away is fine as well.  Foveon refers to the sensor in the Sigma camera.  Full color RGB instead of the Bayer layer sensor in every other camera, which in visual terms means very nice RAW files, with rich color and pixel level sharpness.  Just different tools really…
