Just picked up a 17-40 to completely real estate kit with my mkII. What a great lens!

strobist info:

One manual sb28 through small foldable softbox at about 1/4 power. I tried a few with a 580 as hair light with barndoors but unsuccessful really making it work. I might try this again however.

Many thanks M

Quick shot after work with Emily! really loving the shallow DOF look with beauty dish! I added just a touch of reflector as to soften the effect. STrobist info:
Beauty dish 3 feet away and camera right, but mostly above for key.
reflector just below for fill.
x800 behind with purple gel to match sweater.
x10000 behind and camera left for hair light
