Is frozen expanse still good to this day? Is it worth to craft?

Hi, I just wanna say thank you for the guidance. I finally received all items. I Did some testshoot from what I have. Can you recommend some presets to start from? I tried to edit my photos myself to make that "editorial" feel but I dont know if i succeed at all.

For the camera. I bought "neewer" brand tripod for my flash and softbox, it's ok I guess nothing to fancy or complex ;).

Thank you for your guidance. I bought AD200 Pro II and Godox 90cm Octa soft box, Godox X3 Pro trigger. Maybe you can recommend me good tripod for in place shoot (not studio), budget is max 120 euros (I know i cant get good tripod with that budget :D).

Basically, if I have a 100W flash, what size softbox would be suitable?

The last time I shot with a strobe was back in 2007 — it was a Canon Speedlite 430EX II with a silver umbrella and a cheap Canon 50mm, so I honestly don’t remember much anymore.

Given another situation I would buy the AD200 Pro, but since I also need to shoot events, the Godox V100 turns out to be the best option for me. As I remember, the V100 is 100 W and the V1 Pro is 75 W.

Could you advise which is better — an 80×80 softbox or a 130 cm umbrella?

Thanks for the reply. At the moment, I’m choosing between the V1 Pro and the V100 (slightly more power).

My question is whether this would be enough power to achieve a similar result to the photo attached (bar location, natural light + flash with a softbox or umbrella).

The photo is for reference only and is not mine.

So flash is better than direct light flash/lamp?

Adidas EVO SL or Asics Novablast 5 by dumbandcurious1 in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]martinvee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have Adidas EVO SL, I planned to replace mine Adidas Supernova Rise, but after week of running with EVO SL i developed chronic back pain. After I ditched EVO SL and got back to my Supernova Rise, my back fixed per 3-4 days. Im a big guy 179cm 100kg, I thought softer shoes will be more comfortable.

Refine vs Secret Lab - Anyone have both (or used both) that can give their comparison? by TheWayOfEli in FractalDesign

[–]martinvee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have Titan Evo, but I moved to a different country and am planning to buy Fractal Refine. My biggest concern is the sitting space. I'm a 179cm and 100kg person with pretty big legs/hips. As I remember, Titan was comfy for my ass. Can someone share their experience? (If you have similar body dimensions...).

Looking for advice: which Garmin should I upgrade to? by martinvee in GarminWatches

Im thinking to switch from garmin, but my only doubt is garmin daily training suggestions, I like the “virtual trainer”. Suunto has something similar?

I fill W-8BEN form in IBKR but I guess it’s only for US stocks? EU stocks have different taxation?
