  1. Hello. I need to help a client set up a reliable system to photograph various garments.

     

    We need to keep a tight budget and are starting from scratch. I will probably get the canon rebel xti for

    the camera.

     

    Lighting is another question. Could we uses home depot lights effectively or are we going to have to go

    the strobe route? If strobes what modifiers?

     

    We have bust manequins and I will be adding seamless, tripod, white balance card, etc to the shopping

    list.

     

    Any advice would be appreciated.

  2. Ah, the old question. PC people will try to defend this till they die. That's the problem, they

    die. Macs, like any other computer will have problems, but significantly less. OSX is rippen

    fast and very stable. And guess what, you won't get a virus. A PC maybe less expensive,

    but how good is cheap when you can't use your machine or you lose all your data.

     

    The lcd is very good. I have one and love it. However, I haven't found quality directions on

    how to properly calibrate a powerbook lcd with photocal or optical. It is really frustrating

    me.

     

    By the way, a mac will save you time and frustration, so you will have time to learn how to

    design for the web, which OSX rocks. Might I reccomend the book "Web Standards

    Solution" by Dan Cedarholm from http://www.simplebits.com .

  3. Hello. I've been searching for a sling style bag to carry my 10D, battery grip, a

    lens or two and a flash. I would also like to carry a small notebook. The only

    one I have found so far is the tamrac velocity 7 or 9. Most likely the 9, but it

    doesn't seem like it can fit some small notebooks. Anyone see anything else

    out there.
