April 2014 Newsletter

     Newsletter                                                                                            
  April 2014
   

 

Dear Photographer,

In the past few weeks we have received a number of requests for advice on ‘what lighting equipment is required to set up a photographic studio’ and/or ‘what lighting is required for a particular shoot’? After asking questions and probing into what the particular photographer’s setup and subject matter are, we have been able to assist them with the most suitable lighting equipment for their desired application.

That is what we do at Photographic Gear - ‘to provide our customers with the most personalised service and advice that they can walk away with absolute confidence’ that they have the right equipment on hand to meet their signature photographic needs.


NEW EQUIPMENT


Lensbaby Lens System

Last month's Lensbaby promotion has been well received and we have decided to extend it till the end of April. So bring your camera along to our showroom and test a variety of lensbaby lenses and experience the creative effects they can produce and see why they have become so popular.
