Yes, I watched a bunch of the PhotoVision DVDs as well as attended the recent seminar in DFW area. It seemed that most of the photographers were using continuous lighting for their studio work. I also saw lots of rapid fire action where they would blast off 3 or 4 shots in a second (which I guess insures getting one with eyes open, etc).
