Wanted to get hold of some roscolux gel swatches and the only place I can find them is Amazon.com so I thought why not, there only $3.99 cheap as chips? Nope!


Where can I pick them up to so they dont me cost £50!?
I've heard of the free ones but apparently almost impossible to get hold of?

If you're talking about what I think you are, any Rosco dealer will have the small swatch books. I've seen them recently in Stage Electrics in Bristol - try a search for theatre supplies.

The Flash Centre are doing these with a Strobist logo on them. They're a little pricey but worth a look. Jacobs/Jessops also do a gel pack, from Honl I think - was about £30 when I last looked

Cheers for the help, I went with Stage Electrics in Bristol. They had both Lee swatches and all four Rosco ones.

There all free but it cost me £6.95?? to get them sent to me but I did order 5 each of the Lee numeric and Rosco supergel and since it will cost me about that in petrol to get there so its not exactly the biggest sum to pay for 12 sampler books now is it?
