Great! Without a stable light source - window light won't cut it because it varies throughout the day - the quantity affects how big an aperture my camera uses, which means differences in depth of field - as well as the fact that my *ON-CAMERA* flash causes horrendous glare in all but the most awkward positions. Thanks, but no thanks. I've spent $200 for my lighting and I'm happy with it. As for the new camera body, well, I had saved my pennies to get one anyway. I'll be able to use it for other pictures.

Rather than spending a few grand on equipment a pennies worth of paper may be adequate?
