ari_poespodihardjo Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 Hi Jamie, I've used Britek HS Series since 1988. It's very basic and straight forward unit but also very cheap. I found it very suitable for my basic sutdio/portable studio needs. Quite reliable but better check if your dealer can service them (i.e. to replace the flash bulb - happened to me after 7 years of service). Hope this helps.

gary_griffin Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 Take a look at alienbees,www.alienbees.com They are little more expensive than britek (which I looked at as well) and as far as ari's observation for the flash tubes, with AB's you can change your own. Ithink that for the money spent you will be much happier with these. G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
