The pair of lights are good value for the money. They were relatively easy to assemble and use (adjust). I am a beginner with indoor lighting. The lights give off a strong white light that brings our details in house interior photos.
__ But
The bulb rests on the umbrella’s metal rod. I called the vendor, cowboystudios.com and they said that is not a problem since the bulbs do not get very hot. I agree, the bulbs do not get very hot, but I am concerned that any sudden accidental jerking of the lights when moving could cause the bulb to break because of the contact between the bulb and the metal rod of the umbrella. Those new style florescent bulbs are energy saving, but they contain mercury and must be very carefully cleaned up when you break one.
I wish the lights came with instructions. My first attempt at assembling them almost met with disaster. I grabbed the light just in time before it almost fell over and broke. I did not realize that the light must extend over one of the tripod legs — not inbetween them.
I guess I could search the web for instructions and tips on using lighting, but I would have appreciated a cheat sheet on using the lights.

Wow…I love these lights. I am an amateur photographer. Ask me a technical question and you will get a stare back at ya! Hahaha! I just do it for fun and have a very nice expensive digital, Photoshop Elements 7 and these lights along with digital backgrounds I use. My neighbors love me…I love to take pics of their babies and kids! It is a win win situation and these lights are perfect if you don’t have a lot of money to spend. Very nicely put together with totes to store them in. I just think they are great and at such a reasonable price!!!! Very good service too. I emailed them on how to put together (I am sure they think I am an idiot) but answered me right away with a video instruction attached! What a great company!

Easy to assemble and with compact flourescent lights it is cool to work with because they don’t give off as much heat as regular bulbs. The lights are very bright but cheaper to run than normal because they are CFL. Very inexpensive pair of kits in one box but provided exactly what we needed for home video making for our youtube channel. The tripod assembly even comes with its own carrying bag which helps make it portable.

I purchased these lights to photograph my artwork. I’ve used them with my 35mm film camera shooting slides and my digital camera. The results are great. Additionally, everything collapses for easy storage.

This product has great quality for the price – the light is very intense, and will suffice for most amateur indoors work with a good digital camera. We have used it for high quality You Tube videos with no problems. Very easy to assemble, and a great “bang for the buck”
