catchlights said:In this case charge by your day rate, estimate how many shot you can do in a day (8hours), day rate depend on photographers think how much they worth, can be $4~500 to a few thousand.
To use a hotshoe flash or a Metz 60 bounce is workable. It depend what the clients want. If they just want something better then a shot from a compact camera, no problem.
If they expecting something like IKEA catalog, you still can use hotshoe flash bounce .unless you are very good.
catchlights said:Just a kind of illustration, how can a photographer archive a studio light set up effect by using hotshoe flash? He must be able understand the ability and limitation of the equipments, and make full use of it.
For whatever kind of job, the photographer must understand what clients want, if the client just wants some make some 4R prints of the furniture for the salesperson to bring around, why sell him a $600.00 per shot set up?
But if the client want shots for international furniture exhibition show, than you better sell him a proper lighting set up shots.
Am I good? I dont know. But this is something I encounter before, so I share.

Sion said:If "a bounced flash" generated "without studio lights" is not on-camera flash, what sort of light is that? Hah?
Enlighten lah.
lwy said:Hi Sion,
Think you have to enlighten me how to generate bounce flash from a on camera flash...maybe you do a diy bounce?? :dunno:
From what I understand normal hot shoe flash (EX420 or EX 550) is not considered studio lights (for e.g. those by bowen etc...)

reachme2003 said:some clarification is needed, what is on camera flash? to me, widely defined, it can mean a portable flash mounted directly or indirectly to a camera. to me again, it does not refer to using built-in flash of a camera.
