<<A folding Litedisc is heavier, will not fit in a camera bag and you need
an
assistant.>>
A F280 is $195. A 22' litedisc is $21.50. If the photographer can't carry a
reflector
I guess he must spend $195 for less controlled fill.
If the camera is on a tripod you can hold the reflector yourself.
>You would probably need a ND filter to slow the shutter down to 1/2000.

<<Umm, no. Not unless you're shooting 400 film (why?). Do the math.>>
Have I figured this wrong? Sunny 16
Iso 100 f-16 at 125
f-11 at 250
f-8 at 500
f-5.6 at 1000
f-4 at 2000
f-2.8 at 4000
f-2 at 8000
less 1.5 stops = 3000
Some one tell me if I figured this wrong.
<<Bad example, Monte shoots medium format which means he has leaf shutters
(1/500 sync) and the fastest lenses are f4. I was referring to the 35mm
world. Does anyone really read Shutterbug for the articles?>>
Monte is one fine example of someone who uses portable fill flash for top
quality professional portraits. That was my point.
I don't know what leaf shutters and format have to do with weather portable
fill flash is for amateur grab shots only or is a viable tool for
professional photography.

Ps: I don't have a lot of interest in Super FP with what I have heard here
so far.
I am only trying to understand what has been discussed so far.
Anyone that takes my comments as if I _know_ is mistaken. :-)
