| | Re: First and Last ornament for 2007 Marci, The little bride got it at Wall-Marts for $49.95. It is 16 x 16 x16 inchs with two colored back drops of Blue and grey. Love the Blue and Grey! IT unfolds to make like a box. made from a specially woven ,heat resistant, nylon fiber mesh diffuser on both sides and top. Two high output lights of 20 watts using Gu10-c light bulbs. a sturdymini tripod and once folded up and everything put away in its case, the case is 16 X 16 x 1/2 inch. Neat.
Course one could probable build it for less but doubt any more portable. I like it.
Mel, No, I turn the flash off and went to an up close setting on the micros.
See, I do read what people has posted and hopefully learned. That and the nativity scene were the first two items I have used it with. Less than 5 minutes to set it up. But let the lights cool down before you put them away. Again, less than 5 minutes to teardown and fold away.
We have been doing a little Ebay selling and will be using this for the small items.
Definitely a difference using the tripod.
Thank you all for the nice comments. I appreciate them. |
