    Does anyone know where I can get these in Ireland, and what kind of minimum orders do they require (i.e. can I just buy 1 sheet at a time?)?

    TIA.

    Are you looking for a sample swatch book? They are very useful for altering the colour of the flash and are a perfect for almost all common flashes, Canon, Nikon etc....

    If so, you can apply for Lee gels online here http://www.leefilters.com/lighting/contact. I did a couple of months ago and they sent me a swatch book, free I might add, from Irish suppliers Stage Lighting Centre. They are on 12 Brunswick Place, Dublin 2. Their number is 01 677 3044. You could call them direct instead of using the link above. I'm sure they would oblidge you with your request.

    For Rosco filters and Gels you could try this link for the swatch book. http://www.rosco.com/uk/promotions/luxsbrequest/. I had less luck with them, ie.. a nice email from them asking me to contact the Irish rep. Production Services Ireland on 028 9081 4858.

    Also... yes there's more...:D If you make a purchase from the larger resellers in America, B&H or Adorama you could include in your purchase a couple of swatch books for 1 cent.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks Dave, I went in there today and got sorted with some 1/4 & 1/2 CTO and 1/2 Window Green. Plus picked up a handy swatch book :)

    The guys in there are a laugh, and very helpful.

    They have a great range of Lee Filter gels. They don't do Roscolux, but do have some Rosco CineGels which are also great.

    Thanks again for the help, really appreciated.

    Glad to be of help. I got the CineGels swatch book from B&H a while back and can't complain.
