|| SportsShooter.com: Member Message Board American Airlines Center-Dallas Mark Stallings, Photographer Greenwood | AR | USA | Posted: 4:08 PM on 10.16.08 ->> Anyone shot at AAC? What kind of available light can I expect? Also, I'm renting a block of strobes. What will I need to hook into their strobes?  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

However, you can get 500 at 2.8. Lighting is somewhat uneven. Hope this helps----Lisa  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

Any other event and you're on your own. The connections are tucked away in the tunnels leading to the playing floor. There are four tunnels, and there is a connection junction in each of them. Bring a sync with a household connector. I might suggest running a line out to wherever you are shooting as the building is not the most radio friendly one around.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

Actually, I'm shooting a rodeo which will make it even tougher for available light. I'll bring a sync with household and some extra line. Thanks for the input.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

You can run the line out from the tunnel and secure it closer to the rail. Then add you receiver. That will give you some freedom.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?
