I have just bought this DVD on Amazon and want to draw your attention to a fabulous product. If you use Nikon flashes, you should definitely invest in this DVD, which shows how to use Nikon cobra flashes in a host of different situations instead of investing in heavy, expensive studio equipment. One of America's best professional photographers, Joe McNally, takes you through various situations indoors, outdoors and for portrait as well as full set photo. Try to find it in the UK to reduce shipment costs. Good luck <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

I kind of thought along the same line, but after trying it out I found out there's just no way to replicate the same results as with studio lighting. CLS is great when on the move, and you don't want to bring along the studio gear or just can't do it.. But when actually working in the studio there's no way I'd prefer the (SB 900) speedlights to the studio flashes, not the same power and light distibution, nor the capability to work for a couple of hours (overheating of the SB's).
