Just wondering, what sort of material did you use to create the black reflective platform?

Nice product shots. Did you use blue cellophane over your SB-800 for the background?

The 17-55mm f/2.8 is on my camera most of the time, though I always end up swapping over to use my 50mm f/1.2 :D

I do some work at the local theatre and scored myself a LEE Filter sample pack. So I have 1 of every colour in the LEE range. They are good as they are almost a perfect size for the SB800!

The 17-55 is going to make way for the new 24-70 2.8 8)

Ah the fringe benefits of work :D

I look forward to the day when I too leave DX cameras/lenses behind for FX, but that won't be for a loooong long time :D
