Hardware Update plus Store Review: Tay Hua Trading Corp

Well, this update is actually a couple of weeks old but might as well share it (as I have via plurk and facebook anyway). :) I went and got myself a strobist umbrella set. Splurged on some upgrades and options as well. 1.) 6 foot stand --> 9 foot stand 2.) 36 inch shoot through umbrella --> 43 inches 3.) Swivel umbrella bracket. + PT-04 remote trigger set (had to get the PT-04 set as the other model didn't trigger my current flash for some reason). I actually bought a couple of blowers as well while I was there (cheap at 150). I'm loving it (or at least the fact that I own it hehe). Unfortunately for me, there were some considerations that I didn't, well, consider. :) The strobist kit picked a 6 foot stand for a reason: portability. The 9 foot stand is anything but. It gives a lot of height though, and I'm sure that I'll be needing it eventually (like for Christmas family photos and what not). All purchases made from TayHua trading corp . For this
