Added more strobes to my collection


I recently won a bid for a set of strobes which will add support for my off camera flash work. I purchased a Vivitar 285HV and a Promaster 1700 Flash. I am looking forward to using these to help light my subjects better.

I recently built a DIY soft box for shooting small items. I'll be putting the pictures up on EBay for household items we wish to sell. I identified the need for the additional flash units based on some testing that I've done. I've also seen a lot of photographers list the 285HV as an inexpensive go-to flash possessing the ability to change the output power level.

I'll be posting some of my pictures with descriptions of the setup.
