I just ordered a strobist kit from Midwest Photo Exchange and am pumped to start using it!

1 x LumoPro LP633 Umbrella Swivel w/ Flash Shoe Adapter
1 x LumoPro LP160 Quad Sync Manual Flash
1 x LumoPro LP605 7ft. Compact Light Stand
Strobist gel kits, etc...
1 x Westcott 43" Collapsible Umbrella White Satin
1x LumoPro Hot Shoe Universal Translator with Female PC and 1/8" (3.5mm) Minip

I'm using it with a 60D. It's cold outside now and dark when I get home so maybe this will give me something to do. I plan to put the universal translator on the camera and run a 1/8" audio cable to the flash & light stand setup.

I've checked out strobist.blogspot.com and done some reading there. If anyone has other tips I'd be happy to hear them.
