Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS USM Setup shot

Wow that's a long title isn't it? Anyways, browsing flickr I noticed a lot of gear shots so I figured I should do one too since I wanna fit in and all.

 

I honestly bought this lens just to shoot auto racing since I just ♥ cars. Paired with a Canon 2x II Extender makes for an affordable 400mm lens.

 

I originally planed to shoot it with 1 430EX in a shoot through umbrella but found that the shadows were a bit harsh so I added a 550 pointing up in a shoot through umbrella to give it a bit more "lift"

 

Strobist info:

1 430EX 1/4 power 1/2 CTO shoot through umbrella high camera right

1 550EX 1/16 power 1/4 CTO shoot through umbrella low camera left

 

Camera setting:

1/50 f/16 ISO 1600

 

Lens used:

Canon EF 50mm f/1.2L USM

 

Completed shot can be found here
