well, there must be a online store somewhere for "the movie industry".
We don't mind spending some money on it if there are good quality.
I've seen some that has a "lambert" back (half chrome half lambert)
which would be nice to have. Or just have two separate ones.
Basicly.. where does "the movie" people buy their stuff. :)
Sainsbury's just sound baaaaad... hehe. Even though I'm sure they will
work just as good as the "pro" ones.
Honestly, unless you need some very clean (and not blurred) reflections
you will never tell the difference between an optically perfect
multi-hundred dollar chrome ball and a $25 gazing ball. Try it out. At the
rate these things get dropped, banged up, etc. on set, and in luggage we
much prefer to use the cheapies. I think I have had one shoot where I sued
the "good" one, and it was overkill.
