Storbist with iMac's Photo Booth
So I thought it'd be neat to try and get a strobist picture using the iMac's built in iSight.
Since this "camera" is fully automatic, it was tough to get a proper exposure. The "camera" estimates the exposure and then takes the picture, but it doesn't know there's going to be extra light from my SB800/600.
I had an SB800 to my right as the main light, and a SB600 on my left bouncing off of the the door frame. Both were set to 1/128.
I had my D90 over to the right in commander mode. I used the wireless remote to fire the D90/strobes at the same time as the iMac took the picture.
Since the iMac makes the whole screen go white during the exposure (kinda like a giant soft box), I had to put a piece of black paper over it to keep out the extra light.
