i use A3 white or A3 silver reflectors… just get a sheet of paper, or mylar, and laminate it… punch a series of holes in it, and hey presto… a 8 foot wall…

use a margarine tub for flash diffuser… cut it out, and add greaseproof… (i use a Metz 45ct5)

and i do like the beauty dish idea… now lets see if itll work on my Elinchroms…

and finally, i have a wall…(2.5m high, 6m long), or a 2m x 1m alcove, or a 2x2x2 box… fits anywhere, folds into a shoe box… cost, 20 quid.

I had my brother made me a ring flash with some really really cheap components bought at DX (made with led rings). It works as charm, and it’s easy to carry around!

art – dPS has around 3000 tutorials in our archives and many new readers don’t realize what is there – so at times we update and repost previously published posts. We do that with less than 3% of the posts we do. Hopefully that’s not too much of a burden for our longer term readers to bear!
