Need second strobe

6 posts
  1. I need a second strobe to pair with my Subtronic Gamma Plus , 250 Watt

    I will use it most in pool sessions but sometimes for full body WA shoots

     

    Now i have thinking that:

    1. I go with a Subtronic Mega Color, 350 Watt (have found one used for ca 700 euro)

     

    2. A new subtronic Nova, 270 Watt but it will cost me much more money

     

    I was thinking to stay with subronics becauce of the color temperatur,, want not to mix upp diferents strobes and becauce they have a slave mode so i can place one far away from the camera..

     

    But anyway.. if you have any othe suggestions and tips you are welcome

  2. Not all Subtronics have the same colour temperature. I was thinking of getting a new Subtronic Midi to pair with my Alphas, but the new strobes have a slightly cooler colour temp than my old ones.

    p.s. Lambis, where do find these second hand strobes? I am looking for some second hand Alphas or Alpha Pros?

  3. Alex on ebay but i am searching all the time now the last 3 months.

    Then it is the other forum in GERMAN Julians www.uwpix.net there they are a lot people that use subtronics & hartenberger.. I am lucky becauce i speek German ...

    But now that i know that you are to looking for a A second hand strobe I will have my eyes open

     

    BTW 700 euro for a second hand Subtronic Mega Color, 350 Watt. Is it a good price?

  4. Not a bad price - that is less than a brand new Midi, which is about E750 I think.

     

    Of course it depends on condition...

    p.s. Lambis please send me a magic shot for the 1 year anniversary gallery.
