Off camera flash vs China Studio Light

hokkaido88 · 24th April 2009

Anyone can show some comparison shoots between an off camera flash and cheapo studio light(if place on the same angle/setting?

What's the difference between these two? If there anything that a studio light can do but the portable flash can't do?

Well, you got to have that leap of faith yourself. Most of the China studio lights are not half bad.

The difference between the two are really portability and ease of adjustment. ask yourself what kind of styles are you more adapted - moving around with an extra 10kg of gear but having more modifying options, or do you rather lug around a flash that weighs less than your lens?

I think Stefen sums it up. I was about to say the same thing...
