I still have one 24/24 power pack and (5) LH2400 lamp heads. I need to sell them and have no idea of the value of them. Can anyone help with this? Additionally, is anyone interested in buying? They were fired up about 6 months ago and all in good working condition.

My sincerest apologies for the bad behavior. I guess I wasn't thinking clearly. I saw that the post was nearly a year old and was excited to see that there was any interest at all for the Norman lighting. Again, I apologize.

Larry, are you still looking for a set of 24/24 power packs? I have an entire studio worth of equipment I would like to sell. I have no idea how to price them, though.

yes, thank you.

Good point. Thank you.

Help me understand how it DOES work?

I've just learned that my D7100 has an option to change the crop ratio to an (additional?) 1.3x. In quick comparison testing I can see that my image is indeed "closer" with the 1.3x. What can anyone tell me about this option? I have a couple of points I am concerned about and would appreciate any input.

My options for lens use are 35mm 1.8, 18-140mm variable, 80-200mm 2.8, and 17-55mm 2.8

* Will I get any vignetting, pin cushion or barrel on my images
* Will this decrease my image quality in any way.

I am thinking this would be a great feature for weddings where I am limited to the far back of the church. Thoughts?

Thank you, everyone. I purchased the domain from godaddy so there is a start. Now to look at web hosting. It looks like ipage is pretty simple to use and I may go that route. Thank you, JR1.

I've not even purchased a domain name, so I need help in that as well. I know nothing about that, nor web hosting. I am so confused!

I am in need of a web page and an online photo gallery and I have no idea where to begin. I am brand new to the business end of photography, as I formerly worked under another photographer. Can anyone direct me to a great online photo gallery site and also tell me where do I begin in making a web page? I appreciate any input on this. Thanks! ~Susie

Do any of you fine friends have any experience with this lens? It's Nikon mount and have opportunity to pick on up and wondered if it's worth purchasing. Thanks for any input.


"Sigma Zoom Wide Angle-Telephoto 28-70mm f/2.8-4 DG Compact High Speed Zoom ..."

Thank you, everyone. They still scare me, but I will hang onto them. I also read the longer they are not powered up, the less ability they have to come up to full power. They've already sat about 5 months so am I at risk of these just not working if they sit for a year?

Thanks GW. I'm reading all kinds of stuff about arcing and need to power up properly and blowing circuits. I'm wondering if I should just sell and get a more user friendly set up like a couple Alien Bees. I don't have a studio, (yet). So this set up is a bit large for a makeshift studio in my dining room. Kinda thinking it's a little bit of overkill. Yikes. lol

I have acquired a studio lighting set up that I have NO idea whether it's even something I can use or not. I'm curious to hear some weigh ins from some of the longer established photogs who may have used this system. I'm sure it's pretty old and I'm not even sure what everything is. A local department store photo box company went out of business and this was their set up.

I have (2) Norman 24/24 power boxes, (6) LH2400 strobe lights, a Q39 stripdome, a very large softbox, a computer interface box, all of the cords, 4 honeycomb grids, extra strobe bulbs and modeling light bulbs and a handful of other 'stuff'. I don't even know if this uses a 220 or 110 electrical service.

Help?

Hahaha, Yes, Gumma can be very entertaining, and pretty quick. And thank you.
