This soft box kit is difficult to assemble and the build quality is not all that great. However if you plan on setting them up and leaving in your studio, it's not that bad of a buy. The stands are a bit flimsy and you will see a bit of bowing if you extend all the way. However it's comparatively cheap to the kits that are, no doubt, better made and twice the cost.

What sets the KSB-1250F 3-Light 700 watt Fluorescent SoftBox Light Kit with Mini-Boom apart is its ability to deliver professional-grade lighting in a compact and versatile package, perfect for any studio environment. This comprehensive lighting kit combines the efficiency of a softbox with the robust functionality of a light fixture, making it an ideal choice for photographers and videographers seeking high-quality illumination.
Designed for adaptability, the KSB-1250F accommodates a variety of lighting options, including fluorescent lamps, photoflood lamps, and Smith-Victor's advanced quartz halogen lamps. The interior of the softbox features a silver metallic lining, meticulously engineered to maximize brightness and ensure your subjects are consistently well-lit. The included diffusion panel is a standout feature, providing the smooth, even light distribution that softboxes are celebrated for, enhancing the quality of your photography or videography projects.
The light fixture is equipped with a durable ceramic socket compatible with all standard Edison base lamps, offering flexibility in your lighting setup. The light stand adapter is designed to fit 5/8" light stands, making it a versatile addition to any studio configuration. For secure and safe operation, the stand mounting bracket includes an insulated handle on the tilt mechanism and a ratchet locking system.
Ease of setup is ensured with the softbox's elastic collar on the back, which prevents light leaks and optimizes lighting control. While primarily intended for continuous lighting applications, this kit can be adapted for use with Smith-Victor FLC300 and FLC200 strobe lights by swapping out the continuous light mounting bracket with Smith-Victor mounting bracket #670159.
For added convenience, the kit includes a durable soft case on wheels, designed for easy transportation and storage. This cordura case features Velcro liners and dividers, internal and external pockets, and is capable of holding stands, lights, umbrellas, and accessories. Locking straps and handles ensure your equipment remains secure during transit.
In summary, the KSB-1250F 3-Light 700 watt Fluorescent SoftBox Light Kit with Mini-Boom offers a versatile, cost-effective lighting solution that meets the needs of both amateur and professional photographers and videographers, providing reliable and high-quality lighting for any creative project.
