Questions & Answers

Shopper : Any kit with 2x 1220M kit instead of 1?ANDREW R : Unfortunately no, the only kit we currently offer for this unit includes 1 light unit.
Shopper : Is this one light with stand and umbrella package or two lights, stands....etc? A little confused when looking at what's included with this item! ThanksJIMMY T : Answer is one of eachJOANNE B : I think it has everything but there are no instructions as to how to hook things up. If you are familiar with the way such lights hook up, I believe it would be fine but without instructions as my first set of lights, I just couldn't manage it and set them aside to figure out later. I emailed Adorama for instructions but got no response. The shadow light boxes are difficult to put together. They are fine once assembled but I would't want to break them down and reassemble on location repeatedly.Tristan C : Thanks Danco! Somehow the description and review implies there are two lights, two stands! There is also this <a href="http://www.adorama.com/FP1220AK.html" target="_blank">http://www.adorama.com/FP1220AK.html</a> Which is at a lower price and states one light package! Please advise... Anyone else able to answer my question? Thanks again!DANCO IMAGE L : 1 not 2 I was a bit confused as well. The site should show an itemized list w/ quantity. Plus the title implies plural Monolights. Unfortunately, it is not two for one but it might as well be. I knew this before my purchase so i had no expectations. I actually purchased a second 1220M without the battery pack for 299.00 because the batt pack is only $125 and I already have umbrellas and tripods that I used the left over $75 for a couple softboxes and holding off on the batt pack (my buddy made a power pack for under $300 that will give a full days shoot with multiple strobes, fan etc...)
Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?STEPHEN G : Cost-effective kit with everything I needed. I've just used it in my basement studio but could easily take it to remote locations if needed. The Flashpoints work great and the second one fires from the first on the sensor. Adding a third Flashpoint would make it even better or it can be augmented with Speedlights if necessary. The whole setup packs pretty compactly if needed. No complaints - I recommend it.SHAWN R : Excellent quality stobes. Metal bodies and the DC option is killer. I use this kit for team baseball pictures for schools and I use it on the ball field on batteries. Extremely bright.JOANNE B : I think they would be great but there are absolutely no instructions at all either for use or even set up so I have yet to figure out how to use them I email Adorama about instructions but got no response, so they just sit waiting for me to find time to figure them out on my own.

Rated 4 out of 5

Overall reasonable value

Kit arrived with both light stands broken, I have light stands so not a problem. I plan to buy additional lights but not the kit with the stands, very flimsy. With two units I was able to fill a fairly large room at full power. Stands set at 8' bare bulb using the 8 channel radio unit. Have also used them in several portrait shoots with good success. I would and plan to buy at least 2 more of these lights. The bag with the kit was reasonable sturdy. I would have liked for the covers on the lights to be able to cover the modeling lamps without having to remove them. This year I still have 37 weddings and events booked that they will be used at. With more to come. By the end of the year I should have a good idea of the value of these units. So other than the poor stands I think they are a good value and I would recommend them.
