i have a sony a200 d-slr camera, im crazyyy about photgraphy, im 15, my birthday is coming up and i have a room that i take photos of my friends in and make different sets and stuff, Iwant to get more serious about it and pursue it as a career even in the future, i was wondering what kind of lighting equpment i should get ? a softbox i think it's called? price range would be no more than $500. (sorry about the horrible grammar) thanks for any suggestions !!
