Digital Camera Lighting Kit - GoFuckYourself.com

Hey guys,

We are going to start shooting our own custom content for our sites and we will be using a digital camera to take the pictures. The Olympus e20 is what we will be using. And a Nikon D1.

Basically i want a nice lighting kit for the "Set", so that the pictures come out nice and lite up.

I was looking at this kit, it goes for about $700 - $800

Anybody have any suggestions? Thanks so much

Doesn't the FL-40 work work with that Olympus? If it does, using it with the built-in flash to bounce and fill (as I do for all my indoor stuff) will give you very nice photos indeed, and at a fraction of the cost of "studio lighting." How good?:
