greets once again,
coming up to a buying decision: a smaller light to go with my two Ranger RX.
Lighter, handholdable on a boom with a 27in Deep Octa.
I want to be able to use this as a main light outdoors, and have seen enough users pix to know I kind kinda subdue sun a bit. In any case, I have the Rangers.
1. I hate the Rangers giving you only 30sec of modeling light. Any Quadra users can speak about the LED modeling light? Does it stay on permanently? Bright enough to focus on the eyes while indoor studio?
2. Profoto AcuteB - can it take a Skyport receiver?
Any issues with mixing the Profoto 600B with two Elinchrom Ranger RX?
I can only imagine something to do with flash durations....
I am considering the AcuteB, despite being more expensive because:
1. its 600ws
2. I hear the modeling light is pretty bright, and can stay on.
3. I'm curious about how Profoto light looks...
While either of the two would be nice as a RangerRX-less option for backpacking, its not my main consideration. If something is important enough to shoot, I'll hire assistants to carry the load.
I got a week to decide...any thoughts gratefully appreciated...
