Learned a thing or two in Miami and got a chance to try it out with my own setup. Thanks to others on the web, it’s quite easy to shoot using a remote speedlight (a flash) in a softbox. Now granted, these shots will never compete for any covers anytime soon, but I think it’s so cool that the technology can be so clean and simple. (No wires, AA batteries, all you need–well that and a good lens) One Nikon SB-800 in a Westcott Apollo softbox and the other SB-800 on a tripod, both triggered wirelessly from the camera. I can only imagine how much this would have costed back in the day when Minolta ruled the camera world. 😎
