Paul C Buff 47″ Octabox review

Here’s a review I did in 2010 with a friend and fellow photographer, Chris Gardner. Rooftop in NYC, around Astoria. Be sure to check out Promoshots.com.

Equipment used: Paul C. Buff Alienbee B800, Paul C. Buff 47″ Octabox, Paul C. Buff 13′ HD Stand, Cybersyncs, Vagabond II, Nikon D200.

Personally, I think I made a fool of myself, haha! Enjoy.
