Jewelry tool
Close up work on jewelry requires a good light setup, this one filled the bill and then some. Easy to set up and operate.

Great studio lighting starter kit!
This kit is great value for the money. The stands seem sturdy enough to last awhile and the soft boxes go up quickly. Switch only has on off function. No dimming capability.

Convenient light stand
This is a very convenient light stand to carry around and set up. The stand comes in a carry on bag with a handle. The retractable umbrella bag doesn’t come with a strap so I use my yoga mat bag. Fits perfectly! I bought a 70 watt light from the store on the same day but it didn’t work. I eventually found a 85 watt by Eiko that worked. Hopefully Adorama will refund the 70 watt.

Little money, lot of light.
For basic single camera interviews, this is a cost-effective light. Easy set-up, even coverage. This is a good buy for budget filmmakers.

Great for beginners!
I received this product in perfect condition. I had no trouble putting it together (although I thought I was going to break it when you have to push that circle thing back onto where the bulb goes! but Ive gotten the hang of how to do it). The stand is very sturdy and it produces wonderful, soft light. I will be buying another this week to complete my studio!

Basic, but functional
Excellent value for the money. Not rugged construction (you get what you pay for). Not meant to travel from site to site. The light modifier is fine & the fluorescent light bulb delivers what it claims to. Not for pros. I would purchase another, as it will stay put for my uses.

The Perfect Softbox Kit!
I use this to photograph my jewelry for my website and jury photos. Heard about this kit from Jim Lawson who created a video and recommended your product.

jewelry and loose gemstones
Photography of jewelry and specifically loose gemstones. I use a separate difuser, home made, stretched on a simple 20"x28" wooden frame, and silver colour bounce cards to deflect more light into subjects and minimize reflections. So far so good.

Perfect Basic Set Up
I went from Adorama to my Event Shoot with this
light set up.. The location had almost no light, I unpacked the set pluged it in and Pow.! I had light.. I use this set along with my SB28 in a 28" softbox set up with triggers and the whole night of shooting went well. I'm ready to buy the Octa softbox to add to my Back Packer Studio for Indoor Shoots.. I give this Light Set Two Thumb's Up.. Joey Gee Bx NY..

Great value for the price paid.
I am very impressed with the stand that comes with this unit- much better than I anticipated. Easy set-up except that the bulb has to be securely screwed in to make contact- I took the velcro front off the unit & the bulb went out- I had to screw it in pretty tightly to come back on. I will put it through it's paces pretty soon with possibly another review.

Famtastic value!
I just got two of these today and I am totally impressed. The stands are very sturdy and the softboxes are larger than I expected (a good thing). Light output is fantastic. I had been using some fluorescents in 12-inch reflectors but I can tell already these are going to be many times better. This is an amazing value. If there's a negative, it's only that set-up takes a little bit of time. You have to expand the softbox, install the bulb, attach the diffuser, then attach all to the stand. Not difficult, but it means a bit of work if you move them from one location to another (as I often do between towns and/or buildings). Still, the fact that they do break down is a good thing and the parts don't take up a lot of room in the collapsed state. The reflector comes with a nice case although there's no case for the stands. Bulbs will need to be stored in their protective styrofoam boxes as well. If you need some soft, diffused, light for product photography, these are just terrific! Highly recommended.
