Hah, got myself a good deal over the weekend. I chanced by this studio which was ?folding and bought some accessories at a steal. So now I have a new snoot, a barndoor set with 3 colour gels, plus 2 muslin backdrops! I'm waiting for him to let go of his beauty dish reflector at the end of the month.

Which really goes to show that you can't quite eke out a living locally as a studio photographer. The really awfully good ones spend a lot of time, effort and $ to make it to shoot for fashion magazines, while the more-than-decent ones with good technical skills get shunned aside by undiscerning customers, and unfortunately the mediocre ones end up "impressing" unknowing people by working in bridal boutiques and churning out -blah photographs for exorbitant prices. No, it's better left as a hobby.
