Anifa W : I would like to order this to use in Hong Kong, does the power plug or any adapter needed for for the UK standard?KIMBERLEE H : What I received has a plug for US so yoh would need an adapter to use in Hong KongELIZABETH B : yes, adapter needed. what i received is us standard. hope this helps.
ELIZABETH W : Will these lights work with 230 volts?Brands@ A : NoMICHAEL G : No. It's only rated for 110v.FRED K : No they are 110 volts only
Shopper : Do you think this kit will work for photographing clothing on a mannequin?REBECCA B : Yes. I still use these all of the time......GEOFFREY G : Yes. If reflectivity is an issue, place the two units at right angles to each other so glare is cancelled out. Adjust soft box light levels as needed.PELLE C : The kit will work okay for your purpose. Because of their small size, this kit works best for close up work, maybe an area of 4 feet square. From farther away--a full length mannequin maybe five or six feet square, the light tends to be uneven, falling off at the edges. The quality of the build is very good and it's a fantastic bargain at the price. It will work for your purpose, but bigger soft boxes might be a better option.JAMES M : The Two Light Softbox kit should provide sufficient lighting for photographing clothing on a mannequin. The entire kit is a great value for the cost.KYLE G : Absolutely. If you're looking for a simple setup to do product shoots with, this is a great, cost-effective set to work with. This is the set I used when i was starting out as a photographer and i still use time to time even now that i've gone professional. It's compact and incredibly convenient. I would definitely recommend buying the Flashpoint set.

This lighting set turned out much better than i was expecting

This lighting set turned out much better than i was expecting, i was only getting it for 1 occasion and i was trying to find the least expensive lighting i could get for my project,i did not have an account for this so because it was for the Church i funded it out of my pocket. These lights and boxes worked so well,i have decided to use them on other projects that will have a budget, due to the fact that this was last minute decision, I did not have time to waste I had to get this product right away thanks to the excellence of Adorama shipping dept. my order came right on time. Thank You Adorama for making my project a Success. Clifton Anderson

Good for finding your lighting legs

We have some basic product photography needs and these lights give us enough light and ease of use for our space. Setup is simple and the carry case is helpful. Just wish the bulbs were brighter, we're thinking of finding brighter replacements.

love it!!

I ordered those as part of my first and inexpensive studio set for home use. the set up was easy and the results are great. I have a few flashes at the house and thought I could get a way with those but this lights are better since u can see what the image will look like before you take the shot.

Hard to set up

The "cage" that fits around the Iight socket was very hard to press down and was painful to my arthritic hands.

Decent for the price

I bought this kit to photograph work for my design portfolio, and the occasional clothing portrait shot. All things considered, it's more than adequate for my needs. The build quality is solid enough for light studio work. Although, I don't have high expectations for the longevity of the soft boxes. Don't expect too much from the kit and you won't be disappointed.

Good Inexpensive Kit

About what I expected for the price -- stands are a tad flimsy and would probably be steadier with the addition of a sandbag/weight on the bottom. Lights stayed relatively cool and bright through 7+ hours of shooting. I removed the softbox covers for a brighter look which worked well. I'd recommend the kit for anyone who needs inexpensive lighting for occasional studio or auxiliary lighting. Carrying case is great and easy to transport.

Good Beginner Continuous Lighting

I have used these lights for indoor portrait work a couple times now. Overall I was very pleased with the results. They probably aren't the brightest lights, but I found them workable when using a wide aperture (f/3.5) and fairly slow shutter speed (1/80 sec). The lights pack fairly easily into the included bag. Setting the up and taking them down is not hard, but a little bit time consuming. If you're getting ready for a scheduled shoot, give yourself a little time to put them together before the client arrives. The soft boxes open by pressing a center ring down around the light socket. The first couple time I did this, I was afraid the ribs of the boxes would break. It seems to work a little smoother now. They're not particularly high quality.

Perfect for personal studio on the go

Great product for the price point. Does the job well. I have already used this in 3 portrait sessions and it performs great for what I needed. One of the bulbs came not working but Adorama sent me a replacement right away. I would highly recomend this to someone who wants to get into studio lighting.

Great Value for the Price!

I've been using this softbox kit for about two months now and find it to be an invaluable addition to my light kit. For the pricepoint, I don't expect it to last forever, but as long as you treat the equipment right, it'll treat you right. Highly recommended if you're on a budget and looking for your first softbox kit!

Exactly what it says on the tin.

Frankly, better than I expected at the price. Everything works as advertised. Some of the stress points use a fair amount of plastic. However, beyond occasional assembly and disassembly, they'll just sit, on or off. It will be nice to have a source of a lot of light for product shots without worry about something burning through softbox fabric.

Cheap

If you never touched teh product, kept in on one place, it would still fall apart. Basically, you get wht you pay for, and with this, you don't pay a lot, so...

Cool lighting kit

Really nice soft light, should change to larger, 85watt bulbs for more output. Real 5000K cold light source. Good for products and artwork and artifacts.

Not Bright Enough

These just don't put out enough light. Spring for a couple of small monolights and modifiers. You'll be much happier.

Good for small jobs

We photograph wigs and hairpieces for inclusion in our web site. This kit is just what we need. Only negative is the cost of the lamps - we wanted to buy three color temperatures, but had to settle for one. That is serving us well.

Best Bang for the Buck

this is the best kit i've seen compared to items on [@] etc. simple to set up, simple to use. took me approximately 2 min to set up and breakdown, including attaching the softbox covers. the air cushioned stands are the best. i would totally recommend this to anyone on a budget like myself or just starting out.

Great for my use

I was asked if this would work outside for portraits and I can't answer that. I use the lights to shoot my sculptures for publication. They work great in my studio. I have never repacked them in the case after moving to my studio across town! If you do need a case,it is a good one. It is very easy to pack and carry. I bought a set of incancescent studio lights for over $100 fifteen years ago and have been struggling with them since. My only regret is that I waited so long to get these.

Good Product

I'm working at improving the photography skills and having options as a photographer. This will be my portable lighting solution. I've used these lights to take some pictures of rooms in a house for sale. I was pleased with the results. The only down-side so far was that I managed to break one of the bulbs. My fault and not some defect in the product.

Just what I needed.

Frustrated with light boxes and tired of making my own (so easy to make one with a cardboard box and t-shirt material - look it up!) I needed something mobile and convenient to set up, mostly for food photography. This arrived right before a shoot - I was able to set up and capture the dishes before they went to tables. The stands are a bit flimsy, but once you have them set up, they stay in place well. Power cords are short, and light is not adjustable. It's on or off. But close enough that I could adjust in post-processing. Carrying bag is great. I haven't used these yet for portraits yet, but look forward to doing so. Great value for what you get.

Good budget lightning set

This set works well for a studio, such as product photography. For the cost, it is well made. The light is reasonably uniform. The only problem I noticed is an occasional noise from one of the lamps. I think it is a faulty switch, but I would still give it 4 stars. I was able to compare to a very similar lightning system from LS Studio (similar to Julius Studio) that I purchased on [@]. The Adorama product is slightly more expensive and better built, and the outer softbox material is different (something like nylon vs. vinyl). I would prefer Adorama.

Flash Point, exceptional field use

I used this to shoot a friends wedding last October. Easy set up portable and lightweight. No harsh light everyone got their pose on! Some maybe critical of the output of power but any seasoned photographer as myself has done more with less. Wasn't an issue for me. The bride love the final product and as we all know 'A happy wife make for a happy life."

Very nice kit.

I've used it once so far. Light intensity from one lamp, is plenty for a small studio.

A Great Solution

By Birdo N.

I am a dollmaker learning to use my digital SLR to take quality photos of my work. When I realized I needed a better lighting solution I was overwhelmed by the plethora of options and daunting prices until I came across the Adorama Two Light Softbox kit with everything I needed AND a handy carrying case which fits tidily into my already overcrowded work space. And for such an affordable price. Everything assembled easily and worked nicely and I am set for years to come.
