Help, I'm thinking of going with Sinar Hy6, 54 LV

I think I figured out my Sinar back in 5 mins. It didn't take long to do a tour of the menu and try a few things out. I can imagine the camera would take longer, and seeing both for the first time would take longer again.

Alright, now I understand why they haven't been able to join.

Would be definitively great to have them joining one of the next workshops.
Thanks for that, Guy.

Best regards,
Thierry

Now as far as the workshops CI asked us to come and Steve at PPR did as well. Since we had a small group this time we did not want to overload the attendees with too much product around. Next workshop Steve is invited as well as CI and Jack and I would love to have Sinar on board as well.

You got me thinking David, we also have David at Dale labs with full studio space to host something. Heck i just volunteered him. LOL But yes a perfect venue for something like this with a lighting seminar and some models to shoot with all the backs. Hmmm
Actually, it's my friend, Andre, that has the studio ( tyestudios.com ) but it's only minutes away from Dale Labs. I'm sure I can help you work something out with them if you're interested. If you can't get a Sinar rep to attend I'll be happy to help out... although it might give Thierry a panic attack just thinking about it :) Side benefit is free lodging for you and Jack at my house.

Steve would kill three birds with one stone,
representing Hasselblad, Leaf & Sinar.
Plus, he knows each brand inside out, he's that good.

Thanks Graham... as if I didn't feel dumb enough already :)

Plus we have Lance for Phase that resides in Miami. That about covers everyone. This has real possibilites

I would like to do a two day with test models. Costs? Than we need 10 attendees. Hmmm

Guy, sounds nice. Also need to factor in some outdoor shooting time (morning or late afternoon outdoors, afternoon in the studio?) for potential first time users. I like the idea of the lighting demo tossed in as well. Shooting tethered demo in the studio would be a plus, also.

For those who expressed an interest in the difficulties I've had with my Sinar Hy6/75LV kit I've prepared the list below.
Hi, David,

Thank you for posting the list of issues you encountered. It is a help to those of us about to follow in your footsteps, regardless of cause.

Most of all, I'm glad that you were able to get all of the critical issues addressed

Best regards,
Brad

Damn Steve i look at that shot and i am starting to shake. from the gear heads we just can't handle that much sex in one photo.:ROTFL::ROTFL::ROTFL:
Yeah, Steve,

If I wanted to see porn like that I'd be at a different kind of website! There might have been children in the room! Warn us next time, OK?? :)

BTW Jack and I are looking at this lighting workshop and MF demo gear as we speak. Getting all costs in and trying to see if this will work. We may have to push the date a week though, keep you all informed a lot to put together on short time frame. I would like Steve and Lance with all there gear , David at Dale with Printing stuff and such . If you have interest in this send me a quick PM so i can sort of start counting. Start date June 20th Friday evening until Sunday is what we are looking at

I've sent David and email and we are working this up right now.

Woody, keep in mind we have to pay for studio space, lighting rental as well as enough models so photographers can work in pairs taking turns as photographer and assistant, so this workshop for a weekend will likely run more than our normal 4 day workshops do.

Pricing and possible dates coming forthwith :)

Cheers,

I have Lanced penciled in and if we can get Steve from PPR than we will have all the backs in one place and there gear to go with it. So for attendees this is worth it's weight in gold to try them all out and shoot some professional models plus learn all about lighting in the studio.
