Could you be more specific as to which model Blackhawk bag you are using.

Another example...<div></div>

Here are two examples from a recent wedding using the Lightsphere PJ with insert.<div></div>

Take a look @ M-Classics bag. http://www.mclassics.com/homepage.html

Mark, I was also intriqued with the MicroSync, so much so that I purchased it. It is replacing my Pocket Wizard set-up. I like that the transmitter has a low enough profile to work on the M6's hot shoe. Contact Paramount cords: http://www.paramountcords.com/ and ask for the hot shoe to micro plug cord option. Fits on the flash hot shoe and converts it to the micro phone plug-in. You then velcro the receiver to your flash. Works great and I prefer the lower profile while working with remote flash. HTH.

try digi proofs

FedEx, DSL, UPS with "FILM- DO Not Xray" labels. Have done this traveling in the US and no problems. I wouldn't take the chance with air travel in this day and age. Just send the film to the hotel and then send it direct to the lab for processing.

After shooting the usual group shot, I tried something a little different.<div></div>

In this photo the Lightsphere was used to light a dark hallway where the bride was getting ready. Pointed straight up w/dome on NPH 400 converted to grayscale.<div></div>

This image shot at the ceremony using the Fuji 1600, converted in PS.<div></div>

In my search for a high speed b+w that could be lab processed I tried Fuji 1600 color neg, exposed @ 1250 and then converted to grayscale in PS.Compare to the previous image.<div></div>

This image was shot on 3200, exposed@ 1600 and lab processed. Original image was too flat so I punched it up in PS.<div></div>

E Mails have been sent to all who replied...

I have the following you or anyone else can have for the cost of shipping:

6 rolls Kodak E 200; 17 rolls Fuji Provia 400 F; 17 rolls Kodak E 100 SW; qty 4 rolls Kodak 320T and 2 rolls Kodak 64 T. Film has been refrigerated since I switched to color neg.

Jeff... I hope you are seriously considering making available for sale at least a transcript of the UK seminar since it will include the business portion that will not be included in the US seminar.

Your work continues to be an inspiration. You have a great eye. It wouldn't matter what hardware you used.

Put me down for the England transcripts/DVD whatever...

Here you go: The Business of Studio Marketing, Edward R. Lilley, Allworth Press. Power Marketing, Mitche Graf, Amherst Media.

Robert Capa lived and worked in a time when getting close to your subject was considered getting involved with the story. Maybe respect should come from his images rather than his bravado or fame. Observing with telephoto lenses creates an emotional distance from your subject IMHO.

This relates to this post in that most of the lightsphere sample photos where made in close. I personally use 28/35/50 mm lenses in my wedding work because I like the working distance. I guess the difference depends on the personality of the photographer as does the usage of most of these gadgets.

Thanks for the responses. Reason I asked is that I have a New Years Day wedding and the weather will dictate shooting the groups in the church. Any suggestions regarding lighting.? I have the SF20 and an old Vivitar 283 with a sto-fen.

Anyone out there using the Metz 54MZ TTL with the Gary Fong

Lightsphere II on a M6 TTL? Like the "look" this flash combo creates

based on the recent posts by Marc and others.

Anne... When a customer clicks on a thumbnail, a larger version pops up along with the option of ordering the image as a color, b&w or sepia print. Order notification is emailed to me. I have my lab print the order and wait for the check. You can set up payment with credit cards if you want. You can contact digiproofs direct through their website: www.digiproofs.com or call Rick @ 650-691-4040 for details.

I have been using DigiProofs. Very simple to use and interact with.

That is my understanding. There are many threads on the SF 20 in the archives.

Chris...I use 3 M6TTL bodies with 28/2, 35/1.4 and 50/1.4 lenses. Just switched from Kodak Portra to Fuji film since it is "balanced" to the Fuji Frontier Lab that I am now using. You can view the results at my web site: www.petersilvia.com.

I use the Leathercraftsmen 3500 series "digital design" and "bind only" albums exclusively. The 300 is a great flush mount style. All the people I have come in contact with at Leathercraftsmen are very professional. Good turn-around time and a quality product. Can't say enough about them. I have been using FedEx next day to ship my uncut negs to Pictage.
