ACMP's Speedlight Talk at the ACP

14 May, 2010

Amongst the Head On Exhibition at the Australian Centre for Photography, over 60 guests enjoyed an entertaining night with ACMP President and Honlphoto Pro Round Table member Gavin Blue talking about how he shoots all his jobs, from corporate portraits to road trains with Nikon speedlights. 

The talk included a lighting demonstration that showed the step by step the difference from shooting with a bare flash to simple 3 flash softlight setup using products from Interfit and the Honlphoto range.

John Swainston from Maxwells donated door prizes and there were also Honlphoto prizes for answering quiz questions.

Here are some pics of the night.
