Some sites sell things and others educate you, this site does both.  The Sunbounce web site sells some awesome equipment at fantasticly high prices, cause it’s worth every penny.  Most of the web sites I review I do have some sort of relationship, either I’m an affiliate, I know the owner, or I just like site.  This is one of those sites that I wish I knew the owner or was affiliated in someway, because the videos they make using their product and the end results that they do post are simply amazing.  The site is geared towards learning and as you see the product in use in numerous videos (over 100+) your desire to recreate what your seeing grows to the point that you feel the need to buy a sun-bounce product.

Summary:  The web site looks like it’s outgrown it’s current design as the ad and video links are haphazardly thrown on the home page.  Font sizes jump in point size throughout the web site indicating that more attention should be devoted to stylesheets.  Localization of the web site is not complete, meaning that the site is primarily a European web site and the English version appears to have many translation issues, though none to distract from content.  As an international user I expect more.

Pros:

  • Without a doubt my favorite section is the videos of professional photographers on real photo shoots
  • International web site with lots of language support
  • Definitely an artistic web site not for the casual viewer

Cons:

  • Localization is still far from perfect on this web site though PHP does support some sophisticated technical capabilities in this area
  • Organization is a bit distracting and doesn’t quite seem as professional as it could be
