Pentaxians March 2010 Outing - Sungei Rd, Little India ... on 13th of March 2010

[fengwei]

As far as I know, a few guys haven't signed up but they'd definitely be there too

Let's make it the biggest gathering up to date

 

[pinholecam]

Pinholecam, I am interested. I am into flash photography now but just got myself a Metz 48 AF-1. So I can chip in my flash. Thanks for the kind invite.

Great!
Ok; I'll bring 1 more receiver (though this one is a bit unreliable) and 1 optical trigger for a total support for 4 wireless flashes

 

[tabako]

I got a canon and a vivitar flash I can bring. Vivitar can only work with receiver and not on hotshoe, because its a film flash and will spoil your camera if mount on the hotshoe because of the high voltage.

Also got 1 transmitter and 2 receiver.

Tripod will do. (I only willing to take 1 )
Yeah. Human lightstand also can

I am bringing my tripod, but I don't have an adapter to hold my flash on it. Not sure if the adapter is necessary, but in any case, I will still bring my tripod.

 

[Ben Loke]

I have lightstands, umbrellas and flash/umbrella holders....but not bringing them to Little India as I cannot think of any space w/o bumping to others to setup the gear...

 

[tabako]

Forget about softbox and umbrella lah.

Let's do harsh lighting. Tripods need adapter to mount flash. So also can forget it. So many people, lets take turns to be assistant.

 

[ishou80]

I might be able to make it with my k1000 and a round of B&W film if I don't need to work =P

Ok. Thanks. 2 tripods should be enough. The most we would want would be 3 anyway.

Lets keep it simple. 2-3 Strobes, 1 umbrella, 1 large bounce card. I suggest the following format :
1. We find a suitable place to setup, session will be immdediately after morning kopi session so that we don't loose anyone.
2. Take turns being model, assistant, photog
3. Each photog can setup the pooled equipment as he wishes (its a learning session anyway)
4. Keep the session short (maybe 1hr - 1.5hr)

Those who are new, feel free to ask.
I'm not experienced in outdoor strobing as well, so its a sharing session for all.
