  • I often travel internationally. Are those lights just 120V or can you use them on 220V as well?

  • Hello there, this is a very nice kit.

  • Adorama's customer service was very helpful in resolving the issue with the not included gels, barndoor etc and sent it out to me. This kit is excellent!! Helps me on the voyage towards better photographs. Thanks Mark.

  • Wonderful! Learning all I can, getting married June 2012!

  • I went out and got one of these, ready to take my studio lighting to the next level. The equipment is as Wallace describes, good quality for the money. however the video is about a year old from the original recording and the content as advertised in the video is NOT what you would get it if you ordered it today.- the barn door, gels and grid are not included. A bit disappointing. Trying to resolve the issue with the vendor.

  • Thanks for accepting my invitation.Just sub me back

  • Comment removed

  • this is a good kit, I bought them, but the one thing though is, the barn doors and grid are not included,. You do get a snoot and some color inserts and a grid for the snoot.  And I think this is a re-run. OHHHHHH, and most importantly, the battery sucks! Once again the battery sucks, I bought one and it was replaced 3x's . Still couldnt hold a charge. You plug them in and the monolights just beep

  • Great

  • really really ... really really ... really really nice

  • is it just me or is this a re-run?

  • Thanks for the help....what's the benefit of a full frame vs none?

  • @iFloridaAllStar, I use full frame, but you really don't HAVE to. A good lens, good light (strobe or natural) and good composition are the basics for good photography.

  • Great deal. I have Elinchrom 500 BXRi monolighhts but still would like to have this set. Super value, especialy for beginners.

  • Is it necessary to have a full frame dslr to take professional pictures or could one get away with a dx such as a d7000 and great lens? Anyone pls help...

  • @iFloridaAllStar

    You don't need a full frame DSLR to take professional pictures. And in many cases you can get by with just the kit lens until you can determine what type of photography you want to specialize before investing in high quality lenses, strobes, filters and additional accessories.

    Remember, what matters most is your "eye" for composing and taking pictures.

  • I am agreeing, the honesty about the dislikes really makes this a great review.

  • I love you mark!

  • Nobody ever mentions Alien Bees transmitter/receivers which are smaller but just as durable than Pocket Wizards. I do wish I hadn't bought digital strobes so I could do DC battery packs outdoors but my Interfit EXD 200's were far cheaper than the ones Mark is showing.

  • Can you do a review of Paul C. Buff Einstein lights?

  • @harrybean2006 they aren't going to do reviews on stuff they don't sell.

  • Isn't the Westcott Strobelite Three Monolight Kit, with Three "FREE" Westcott Softboxes & Adapter Rings better and for the same price? Here it offers 3

    monolights instead of 2.

  • for a kit like this you would expect a battery

  • great review Mark. Keeping it honest--but all-in-all it's a good solid product and the price point is perfect.

  • How do these compare to alien bees?

  • Never says the wattseconds...wonder why Mark?

  • we saw this one already......re-run lol

  • Didn't I see that before ? What's happening ?

  • Amazing review. Fast but I was able to understand the last word. I'd get one to increase light on my old ones. I need just basic gear. I do wonder direction on the portable outside powerpacks to match...regards...O

    ps.- I do wonder if these work with the wescott 7' unmbrellas....

  • Amazing review. Fast but I was able to understand the last word. I'd get one to increase light on my old ones. I need just basic gear. I do wonder direction on the portable outside powerpacks to match...regards...O

  • 03:51 "round one!!!" lol

    nice video sir, they all are...

  • Again, Mark shows what he did NOT like about the product. It may sound odd, but when you can point out something you don't like about a product, I trust the review more. Thank you for the honesty. This is the reason I keep doing business with Adorama.

  • lol ! I'm ready to go indicator

    

  • Nice!

  • I'm the one. :) Great piece of work . . .
