Yesterday I bought a second hand bundle of gear. I got two stands, two umbrellas, three Glanz Mini Pioneer 43 160 WS flash units, and two Godox 300D flash units. I already had two Neewer receivers and a transmitter so I'm triggering the two Godox units using them.
So far I have spent Aus $200.
Need advice:
1. Should I look out for soft boxes?
2. Will I ever need to use five studio flashes?
3. Are there alternatives to backdrops? At the moment I'm using an old sheet.
This is an test shot:

Not too happy with the sharpness.

I did a different set up and opened up the lens a bit and played a lot in light room. This game is totally different to photographing birds.
