Nice Basic Powerful Lighting Kit

 

Nice Basic Powerful Lighting Kit

Nice rolling carry case. Quality seems good so far & there is a 2 year warranty on the set - excluding lamps. Plenty of wattage for my purposes. Would like to have more dimming control within the kit, but the DC-1 dimmer sold separately works fine....

Extras Needed for Use with HD Video Cameras

 

Extras Needed for Use with HD Video Cameras

We've used the kit for two shoots and it is well designed. For the money, it is a great value. However, for those who want to use it with a modern HD video camera, some extras are necessary. This is because newer HD cameras and camcorders are very...

KT900 3-Light 1250-Watt Mini-Boom Kit

Very beginner user only, with that said, the light kit for the price gives you what you need, the poles extend nicely, bit on the cheap side, but work for what they are trying to do, the lights setup is bit confusing with little instructions, but works...

Product is exactly what I expected, except that two out of the three bulbs were broken when I opened the package...no external damage to packaging was visible.

You get what you pay for

The construction is chinsey... NOT portable like it is promoted. Yes, you CAN take it with you, but if a subject sneezes, the boom light falls over. The light stands are very flimsy, and were difficult to assemble (no instructions). Produces decent...

Great Product

 

Great Product

I cheated and bought this from Ritz Camera. When I had a slightly defective umbrella, their reply was to bring the whole kit back and they'd have to order a new one. That was not going to happen. They were local so I thought I was doing a good service....
