Not as much light as I expected

I like the idea of this light, but found two drawback. 1) The soft box is a real bear to assemble. I am now replacing the modifiers I have, where possible, with Westcott Rapid Boxes. I don't have a studio where I can leave softboxes up, so ease of use is very important to me. 2) Light output isn't what I hoped for. I think it would be fine for static subjects such as tabletop product photos. Not so good for any moving subject. Either way, I found myself shooting at ISO 800 minimum and 1600 - 3200 preferred and at f2.8.

Nice product

I am pleased with this product. However, the kit included only one shallow soft box and one strip light. It would be better if it had included two shallow soft boxes. After all, the kit includes two light bases for the bulbs. If you set up two light stands, wouldn't you like to have two soft boxes?

Great setup for green screen photography

I test ed several lighting systems with a variety of bulbs. This was the only one that would light the screen to "Quality 2" on the Green Screener software. The pictures key great into PhotoKey Pro 8 with very little editing. This is a great set.

This Product is Great

This is a great peace of hardware that allows you to position and control your light. I use it for portraits and photographing newborns acting as a window light. As the review headline states, "Simply Fantastic." Very easy to set-up.

These lights are great, easy to set up, and easy to use. I love the TD6.

The WESCOTT Spiderlite TD6 is the most powerful and compact constant lighting system available today. This durable unit is perfect for on-location or in the studio, offering up to 1200 effective watts of power per light. The Spiderlite TD6 allows the ability to switch between cool daylight fluorescent lamps to tungsten halogen hot lamps. Be prepared for any situation with one light head that can offer both options! Three separate controls allow the ability to adjust light output, without changing color temperature. (Each switch controls 2 lamps). With the built-in adapter ring and highly reflective silver surface this light is a great buy.

The Westcott 16" x 22" silver interior Pro Softbox is rated one of the best in the industry for high-quality components and rugged design. The durable shell and double layer heat-shield fabric offers heat resistance up to 500 watts. Soft box rods are designed to flex and are constructed from solid steel while tent-style heat vents allow for additional ventilation when used with hot lights. Softbox comes standard with an extensive 5-year warranty.
