I asked this on the FM forums, but just nothing is happening over there apparently.
Need two strip boxes, planning on using them for side lighting on Dance/Physique photography.
I'm using Einsteins now so the obvious choice is getting PCB's own. However if I ever switch systems (which I won't for the foreseeable future), then I can't take them with me as PCB doesn't make other company speedrings. I've also heard that their baffles are slightly yellow and not a perfect white, which is fine if you're only using PCB modifiers, but bad for mixing (which I expect to do as my current main modifiers are Elinchrom).
Fotodiox makes a cheap set 12x80" with grids, but I hear they're flimsy and more difficult to setup than PCB's umbrella style.
There are several other manufacturers like Photoflex, Lastolite, etc. I would love to hear any suggestions.
$300 or less preferred for a pair with speedrings and grids. $400 on the outside.
