Revainrating 4 out of 5

Very good starter bulb kit and excellent customer service

One of the bulbs stopped working after a few uses. Troubleshooting showed that the problem was with the lamp and not the lamp. I emailed and they responded quickly and sent a replacement which I received a few days later (just in time for the shoot). So thank you for your customer service. Considering the cost, I'm very happy with this setup, although since I mainly shoot green screen videos, I bought more lights. You can get good green screen results with these lights when shooting single subject video. If you don't use green screen, this is a good kit. Remember that you will have two high positions plus one short position. There are two gold reflective umbrellas, two silver reflective umbrellas, and two white umbrellas. This gives you some flexibility. If I don't use a green screen, e.g. For example, for an interview, I have two bright lights left and right, one a little farther from the subject, and a short one that I use to light the background. Be willing to experiment before your theme pops up. Finally, when you go to the green screen, install an app like Green Screener (for iOS) and you can make sure your green screen is lit as evenly as possible. This is a very handy tool. And if you look, there are others, and surely there will be similar applications on Android.
