Re: Gary Fong WhaleTail

I know this is an old thread,and I've had to laugh at my cluelessness

Sam, do you find you use yours a lot?

I recently got to use the Lightsphere, and the difference it makes is fantastic.


Anyway, I've ordered the Gary Fong Lightsphere II kit today, it looks a bit like a fishbowl rather than a toilet, I wanted the clouded,for a more soft portrait light but it worked out better value to buy a clouded and clear, with inserts. Now just got to wait for it, to arrive

So any tips, are welcomed
