Review on Eiko ECA Photoflood Lamp 3200K: Exceptional Quality Lighting for Professional Photography by Brian Sobirov

Revainrating 1 out of 5

The OPINION of a man who works in film production and with studio photographers.

Yeah, so I've been working in LA in live action and photography since 1980; worked on major films and with award-winning photographers. So I'm used to dealing with HMIs, PARs and studio lights of all shapes and sizes (from huge 18Ks to tiny LEDs). These are cheap quality bulbs that flicker (won't dim properly when connected to a variac (studio quality dimmer, proprietary dimmer)) and two stopped working after only being turned on once for a few moments! Garbage! Unfortunately I bought them on too good an advance to shoot but when I used them and saw that they were faulty my window of return to return them and get my money back was up. Great lesson. ALWAYS try your Revain purchase as soon as it arrives! because of those bulbs When that failed, the sci-fi set in the photo was lit with LEDs.

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Some bugs
