Bruce's Studio Set-Up Will Amaze You
In Response To: Amazing and Stunning!!! ()


To emphasize the "human element", and put modern technology into perspective, Bruce is still using

  • film [ remember that annoying stuff ],
  • flash [ which requires a bit of know-how ],
  • a drum scanner [ worth about the price of 300 Nikon D70's ] and
  • a lighting rig that is somewhere between a small sailboat and a large catapult [ and comes from the era of catapults ].

So if you decide to go back to film, please send the D70 my way.

: Bruce, how about a studio photo showing the
: watch setup to produce those pics?
