Stupid Bowl? Wah ... the speedlight prokit 6 is probably closes to what your bowl is, and it's close to a hundred dollars (if not more). The lighting so subtle, almost giving it a feel of natural lighting condition!

Agree, VT rocks! Even in bright sunlight, and against it, you'll still get excellent photos.

Btw, I really like the #10 as well.
