Lastolite HiLite and Nikon speedlights

[chrisgeary]

I'm considering the HiLite 6x7 product for on-site portraiture where space may be restricted. Can the HiLite be successfully used with 2 Nikon speedlights (one in the HiLite and one as key with ezybox on it) and a reflector?

I have severe doubts as to whether you could evenly illuminate a Hilite with one speedlight, even two would be asking a lot of such small units.

Thanks. I have one of your softboxes for my SB600. Would that be enough as key with some other flash unit for the hilite? What kit am I looking for realistically?

i have heard of someone firing two speedlights into a hilight and one through a ezy box..worked fine but struggled on large grop shots to get enough light to illuminate al members....but for individual shots and couple shots this can be done....

Three speedlights seems daft to me. May as well get a proper strobe for the hilite. Can anyone recommend kit I should be looking at?
