STUDIO LIGHTING ADVICE PLEASE ANYONE.
Get another 580ex and use them both. You don't get much more portable than that.

Beginner needing help with lighting
As well as flash lighting, you can use much cheaper bulb constant lighting, though flash is good for freezing movement and stopping pupils from shrinking in the bright constant lighting. How big is the subject you are shooting? is it table top products/pets etc or full length people shots? Do you want bright fashion shots or moody one light images? Stuart

Mirrorless is clearly significant new competition - but there is no sign yet of Nikon going into decline Well Nikon are right in there with their 1-series mirrorless which has sold better than expected, I gather, despite its sensor which is smaller than 4/3. It is only Canon who are refusing to enter the competition......... so far. Only a matter of time though! ;)

Taking portraits at home
Thanks :) No I didn't, the room is entirely white, including the floor so maybe that helped, but I just stood her in front of the window but at the back of the room so the light was softer and that was it.

Lighting, triggers and portability
@ mr goatsmilk, you won't regret buying the travel pack once you start using studio lights outdoors, you could always use the sun as a second light as well as speedlites. A slight niggle with the bowen outdoor kits they sell is that the power leads from the pack to the light are very short, about 3 meters, which is a bit limiting I reckon. My own way of working outdoors is to just use one of...

Just to say thank you to everyone who commented to this thread and also those who PM'd me:P We didn't move the hide in the end, but because it is sited at the bottom of a small slope, I was able to cut a low level flap in it and lower the perch areas to about 12/18 inches above actual ground area. This means I can bring a natural backdrop into play:) A square of white painted hardboard c...
