The Hot Shoe Diaries: Big Light from Small Flashes

Written by Eric on March 21st, 2009 | 0 Comments


The Hot Shoe Diaries is a new book from Joe McNally.  It’s all about (you guessed it) lighting with hot shoe flashes.

I’m a little behind on the news of this new book from Mr. McNally; however, I just ordered a copy for myself.  I don’t buy too many photography books for myself anymore, but I consider this a must-have book.  Apparently, the first batch that Amazon.com had already sold out but they should be replenished within a couple of days (David Hobby says March 22).

I have heard nothing but the highest praise for this new book.  If you don’t believe me, see what The Strobist has to say about it.  There’s also a big PDF excerpt hosted by the publisher, Peach Pit.  It lists for $39.99 from the publisher, but Amazon’s got it for $26.39.

If you’re ready to get in line, you can pull the trigger over at Amazon.com.
