White Lightning X800 or AlienBees B800?
I am looking to purchase my first studio flash and I'm considering a White
Lightning X800 or an AlienBees B800. Judging by specs alone, they are both very similar. Does anyone have experience with one or both units to suggest I go one way or another? I have a very small area in my home that I intend to use (about 12'L 12'W 10'H). I live in Hawaii so I will also do a lot of shooting outdoors so I need something relatively portable also. Indoors, I'll do mostly portraiture and black-n-white figure poses. Outdoors, I'll do a lot of bikini beach shots as well as darker mountain and rainforest-type areas. In an earlier post, I asked if I should purchase a Canon 550EX and 420EX instead of studio flashes but most people advised against that. My camera is a Canon EOS 10D if that makes a difference. Thanks in advance for the help and advice. |
