I am going to assume when you say flags, you're talking about the reflectors and screens used by photographers to modify the light for their portrait shots!. To be honest, there is far too much involved to even start with here!. Do a Yahoo or Google search for "photo lighting setup" and you'll get a lot of links such as http://www!.studiolighting!.net/ which is a free sight set up just for your question!. Good luck!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
