Three 580EX IIs can be wirelessly connected using TTL metering.<BR/><BR/>Portability is really a question of how much you're willing to put up with!<BR/><BR/>I'm a strong advocate of using Photoshop to take shortcuts. You can do high key with only two lights provided you use an easily distinguishable background - check out:<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://www.davidfenwick.co.uk/blog/2008/05/high-key-portrait-photography" REL="nofollow">David's photography blog: High-key portrait photography</A><BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://www.davidfenwick.co.uk/blog/2008/06/simple-way-to-add-zing-to-your.html#links" REL="nofollow">David's photography blog: A simple way to add zing to your portraits</A><BR/><BR/>Hope this helps.<BR/><BR/>Yours,<BR/><BR/>DavidDavidhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01637794816032625118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2312640351553996069.post-18055798314888811902008-10-15T10:33:00.000+01:002008-10-15T10:33:00.000+01:00Just wanted to say I love your daughters photobook, and thanks for your blog, which I discovered today. I've learned some new things from your blog so thanks! Just one question- do you think that more than 2 lights are necessary or practical for a mobile kit? Especially if you want to do high key? Can you get round it easily enough with a reflector, and photoshop? I have the bowens studio-in-a-box two light kit and a 308ex off camera flash. Thanks so much!Adrian Warnockhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12153686724298326405noreply@blogger.com
