Off-camera flash with 2 flashes
I thought one flash was great, two is amazing! I setup my wife's 580EX with a Lumiquest LTP (thank you Lumiquest!) and my 550EX with the Lumiquest III. Set both flashes to manual mode and dial the power till I got what I wanted which took about 5 test shots. That's it! It's actually pretty simple to do. I need light stands. I was limited to placing the flashes on the table. But for now I'm very happy with the setup.

Chris, those are awesome shots! They could be straight out of a magazine or catalog.
Tahnks James! I have to practice some more.
BTW I find a constant light source is still easier to use for watches or for anything shinny object. With the flashes there's a lot of trial and error and repositioning to reduce glare and reflections. You see all of this right away with a constant light source and can correct this much easier.
