After doing some research today regarding different brands of collapsible light reflectors, I learned the following:
- These things are much cheaper in the US
- You can pay a lot more based on the brand, for what seems like the same thing
- And finally, that you can get them at a fraction of the cost from eBay
I just placed an order on eBay for a 43″/5 in 1 Collapsible Light Reflecting Disc for a whopping $24, shipping included! The same type of contraption form my local camera store was selling for $169!
I’ll update this post once I receive the reflector and test it out!
[Update 2009/01/26] I received the reflector about a week or so ago, however I haven’t really had a chance to test it out. Check back for some pictures and overall thoughts regarding quality etc…
