Splitted. We have a whole area for promo-shots, let's not cram them in one thread :)

Nice work Rene´.

1 & 2 are great!

No 4 looks a little flat for me though.

Yeah. Was an overcast day. Idea was to use a bit more flash, shot through an umbrella.
Was a bit windy however, so using a flash umbrella wasn't an option (the rig had crashed to the ground once). Bare flash was a bit harsh if I used a higher flash to ambient ratio, so I used a tiny bit of flash instead of something like on #3, which was the intention.
Note to self: Next time bring an assistant, or sand bags ;)

Yeah, the balance is good, so don't want to mess with that...

Assistants and sand bags, and studio gear, and a 1DsmkIV :D
