This is a great set of lights that is portable and easy to set up. It is sold complete, with everything you need for most portrait lighting situations. My kit arrived with a defective part but thanks to Adorama's excellent technical support, they sent me a replacement immediately! You will need some extension cords and a power strip but otherwise this is a complete and functional setup!

I am pleased with the quality of this product. It's not top notch pro-grade stuff but the price isn't pro level either. I'm an amateur photographer and for the occasional portrait job this more than meets my needs. It's a very good starter setup.

I needed a set of lights for a multi-family shoot and didn't want to use flash to avoid the chance of blinks with so many people. I looked at several places for a reasonably priced set of lighting and finally decided on this set from Adorama based on previous reviews. The lights arrived in a timely manner and packed well in its own carrying bag, which by the way has room for a few extra pieces and is built well. Setup was as easy as one would expect given and my two biggest concerns were quickly alleviated; how sturdy the stands and how bright the lights. The stands were steady even fully extended on a solid surface. The three lights were sufficient to shoot a group of 19 in a makeshift studio garage as the only lighting (no natural or other lighting available). I used both umbrellas as well which were sufficient. I am very pleased with this set and look forward to maybe adding one more for side lighting. Highly recommended set enhanced by great service from Adorama!.

I just started my own studio and wanted something not too expensive but should do the job. And that's exactly what this is doing.

We use the light set for on location newborns and baby portraits. I use diffusion umbrellas to soften the light. Works very well. Lights run cool and are not expensive to have several backups.

After receiving these lights I experimented with them on multiple subjects... The output is great for babies and the heat is minimal. But when used for a simple one person portrait.. They are not so good.

I used this kit to light product shots for my company. I shot photos and video in an industrial facility, and I needed to shut off the overhead lights in the bay I was in, because they were more powerful than this kit, and the color temperature was different. With that being said, this kit is sturdy, and worked well in the dark environment. It makes a great starter kit, and is well worth the price.

I cannot believe I bought this. I was looking for a cheap altrnative to what I currently use for a "mobil portait studio" set up and based on the reviews, it was a good starter set and while not great for a large studio, good for portrait which is what I was looking for. BIG DISAPPOINTMENT! I set this up for the first time, turned it on, turned it off, put it back in the box and returned it. It's cheaply contructed, the bulbs are horrible, it's just not a good set at all. Honestly, if you are going to spend almost $200 for a "starter set" get the Smith Victor.

Puchased this product for my daughter, who is a prfessional photographer just starting to do some indoor work. Very pleased with the product quality and Adorama's professional service

Great starter kit to experiment with variety of light types. Output with lights about 5 feet from subject translates into f/2 - 4.0 at 1/60th second (400ASA). Not ideal for the purposes of film portraiture without a tripod. Nice color for digital shooting.

I am taking a profesional photography course, I was looking for an affordable studio light set, for my artificial light, portrait and still life lessons, something easy to setup, because, I do not have a proper studio, and this set is perfect!!, the stands are very light ,with proper care could last long, every thing fits perfectly in its case, the 85W bulbs, are huge!! and powerfull enough ,for a portrait, and still life photo, of course it is not the best set, but for the price, I am sure, is the best you can get, overall I am very happy with it, I think I will be able to use it as a starting and portable set. With the abailable accesories, you can upgrade it according to your needs.

Good if you want light to go everywhere. it needs a reflector. The light output is also very weak. It needs to be very close to your subject.

this is a great starter kit.the fluorescent bulbs do not get as hot so its no problem being on all the time. maybe not as good as flash but lets you see the light without having to fire a preview flash. light stands that come with the kit are lightweight but sturdy

I was surprised at the quality. I bought this set to obtain better portraits-headshots.

Nice light set for the price but out grow it pretty quick. Stands are nice and was able to use them with my other products like flashes but had to add a adapter (Shoe Mount Multiclamp). Bag nice and big but my zippers are already broken and can not close.

I purchased this for video interviews and it has worked very well. For what you pay you get a lot! This might not be top of the line equipment but does what it says and then some.

Great for those on a tight budget. Not the brightest kit but will get the job done for general use.

I purchased this kit to begin to experiment with lighting concepts for portraits. The quality of the stands was surprising for the price, since this is a typical place to skimp. The lights are solid and provide sufficient brightness. The umbrellas are of good quality and attach well and are easily adjustable. The case is of good quality and very useful. The only drawback is the size and fragility of the bulbs. It's worth keeping the styrofoam packing and boxes for storage. All-in-all a very good value.

Purchased these lights several months ago and have used them several times. They are great. Easy to set up/tear down and the bag that comes with them allows me to keep everything together in one place. I was really surprised at the quality of the lights and the stands compared to the price. Not much more to say except they are a great deal.

Was excited to purchase this set. I bought lighting systems to help me sell products online and didn't want to spend a lot on money, since I'm not really a pro. I love the fact that it's continuous lighting because what I see is what I get and it runs cool. The bulbs are huge and give great light for what I need. The one without the umbrella, I use to light up the background. I love the fact that it also comes in a case, to carry everything. Great set to have. I also bought some soft boxes.

This is a good buy.I use for portraits,food photos, miniatures and it works very well. Very easy to set up and travels well in the provided case. With good care should last a long time.

Wanting to breakout and do some portraits, and I have spent a lot of money on gear this year and could not afford to spend much on lighting. After reading some of the reviews I was afraid that these lights would not be bright enough. WRONG! Bump the ISO a bit and you will be happy. Nice color, the three lights will do what you want, and at a great price.
