Setup shot for Russian Beauty.

Setup shot for this photo.

 

Stand as the Improvised tripod, used at max height.

 

I screw Manfrotto Stud into camera's tripod socket, then put this to Photoflex Swivel Mount, and put this to a usual stand.

 

Camera was directed top-down, and triggered by cheap ebay radiotrigger by brand Phottix. Works flawless.

 

You can see SB-800 and SB-80DX. SB-800 was triggered by SU-800, and powered up with Battery block SD-8a, so even 1/2 power is not a problem, and flashes was recycled quickly.

 

SB-80DX was triggered optically by another flashes, not by SU-800. Its tricky, but it works, if SB-80DX did NOT see IR signal from SU-800.

 

And you can see nearby my lovely Lowepro Vertex 300 AW (it can hold all my flashes, camera body, up to 6 lenses, and more room for funny things), and Hakuba Tripod Bag working as counterweight, which holds up to 3-4 stands, umbrellas, spring clamps, battery blocks, etc etc etc - really great bag, and very unexpensive.
