Questions & Answers

Norm D : does it come with the carrying case shown in photos?ANDREW R : What's in the box: Flashpoint 320 Monolight Kit 8" Reflector Flashtube Modeling Lamp Flashtube Protector Power Cord Sync Cord SoftBox Mounting Ring Air Cushioned Stand Battery Power Pack (FP2PPN) Flashpoint 1 Year USA Warranty
JASON M : I have all flashpoint strobes; 320s and 620. I want to get a couple soft boxes. What soft boxes will fit flashpoint strobes?MIKE N : I do not have a complete answer but would suggest you take a look at the Flashpoint PZ Octabox. For portraits and single light applications they are great.MICHAEL B : Any of Adorama's "Glow" products with a Flashpoint Speed Ring (ordered separately).
Greg L : How do you set up the softbox. Mine is listed as 24x24 but looks round. Where do rods go???????????THOMAS B : Greg, this softbox is notorious for having no assembly instructions and difficult to put together. I have kept mine assembled ever since. The black outer shell is not round but bells out to a square opening. You'll notice four seams which end with velcro. The rods go along those seams and fit into the little sewn pockets at each end of the four seams. Once you get all four rods into those pockets, the fun begins. The circular metal piece is what the other ends of the four rods fit into but each rod will need to bend a bit for them all to go in the rotatable metal frame. On the outside of the frame are eight holes that the fat end of the rods fit into. Since the casing is square, you only need to fill four of the holes. Have someone help you keep things steady and in place as you carefully bend the rods and get them into their respective holes. The last one is the most difficult.GABRIELLE M : There is a great tutorial on YouTube to figure this out. It takes me about two minutes to set it up, now. RENATA C : It will be square when you get it done. This was tough to do by myself. I have a funky wrist, so I had my daughter help me. I can't remember, are all four rods the same? (If there are 3 the same and 1 that is different, put the 3 that are same in first.) Regardless, put 3 rods into the speed ring and through 3 of the casings (the black section). That's the easy part. The 4th rod is the pip. I really thought we were going to break it getting it in. Trying to get the black fabric to stretch was impossible. I will never collapse it again. Good luck.

Good Monolight for the small studio,

Good light for a small studio. Operates very well. I checked the illumination with a light meter and it performed as described. Be careful with the distance from the subject, it is only 150 watts. The softbox is a great diffuser for portraits or for a softer light. Be sure to check illumination with a light meter when using the diffuser. Good value for those on a budget.

Great light for the beginner or hobbyist

I have been doing photography as a hobby for some time now. Wanted to get into doing more portraiture especially since we just had a little boy. This is a great light at a great price to start learning on. Don't regret my purchase at all.

Great affordable professional studio lighting

I highly recommend this product for beginners and professional alike. These strobes output perfect color temperature light. and the price is a steal. I own three and for such a great price I will be ordering two more. They are build incredible sturdy and durable. The recycle time is super fast. The flash bulb is amazing they last a very long time, I have not had one blow on me yet.

Excellent background addition to 620 kit

I bought this light to go with my FP620MPWK Flashpoint II-620 main lights. It makes a great light for background fill, color, etc. when combined with the FPBDK barndoor and filter kit. You have to be a bit careful with placement since it's a bit wide, but it'll still hide safely behind even a fairly small child if you pay attention. I did find that the modeling light was of limited help in aiming a color background fill...the actual strobe illuminated a different radius and space than the modeling light suggested. But beyond this minor frustration it worked flawlessly.

good backlight

Have been pleased with this so far, after 6months use I can't complain. I use it as my backlight and it is consistent. A huge improvement and worth the money over the flashpoint budget models.

Best entry level monolight value.. EVER!

I ordered 2 of these kits to replace my speedlights and have been playing with them for a few hours, and so far I am nothing but impressed with them. Everything is well made and took less than 10 minutes to set up 2 lights. The softboxes did not come with instructions, so the first time I put them together it took a little longer to figure them out. The modeling light has a proportional output setting to it makes it easier to setup some complex portraits and even at 150 w/s has enough power for headshots all small groups without going to full power. The only downside is the reflector rattles a little, but it doesn't bother me at all.
