Portrait lights A friend gave me a couple of cloth umbrellas with bulb slave lights, which they used for there floral photography. Will I get decent portraits using this light set-up? Thanks.

Hi Chuck, I am guessing that they are Britek units, because they are designed like bulbs, and have built-in slaves. You can take portraits with these. Since they aren’t very bright, you’ll need to work at a high ISO. You may have problems with ambient light, or in lighting large spaces or groups. I do not recommend Britek units in my classes.
