The only difference is that the 910 is newer. They put out a TON of
juice and after a recent workshop, I've begun a serious love affair
with these bad boys. I can rock some super fun lighting setups,
which I love because it gives me more creative control in an outdoor
or indoor environment where it's quite possible (or kinda guaranteed)
that the existing lighting may need a bit of help.
I also love how small & portable
these lights are compared to my studio strobes. Now, granted, my
preference is to shoot in my studio but I have been incorporating
these little powerhouses into a few more of my studio shoots even
when I'm using my strobes as primary light sources. The most
important thing I can say about speedlights is to get them OFF your
camera. On-board flash is never flattering but taking it to either
camera right or left and placing it at a 45 degree angle to the
subject, NOW we're making some magic! I also use a Lastolite portable
softbox with these flashes. It replicates the soft light effect that
I love in the studio and I gotta say, being able to bring these
effects to location shoots is preety fabulous!
I also purchased Rogue
Gels for my flashes. They are extremely cool and fun to play
with. I have not spent a huge amount of time getting a feel for all
the incredible effects achieved by these gels but just knowing that I
can alter the color of the flashes makes me all creative and
jiggity!!
Have you ever played with modifying the
color of the light you're shooting? If so, how did you change the
light color/temperature and what did you think of the results?
