How much watts do you need ? I have seen a kit that has two softboxes that are 1000w each and they called the lights quartz I think. Are those any good or powerfull enough and what color light is the quartz ?

That's a tough one to answer. I'm using a 1000w Novatron box with 4 heads and it has always been enough for my needs. If you are trying to light up a big ballroom or church, more power might come in handy. For regular studio stuff, it doesn't take a ton.
I would suggest that you find a local supplier and buy from them - rather than look for the best price online. It might cost you a little more, but its worth it to have someone guide you through the process. Good luck!

Hi, i was wondering, is a softbox and a omni bounce kind of like the same thing? Meaning, is the outcome the same using either products?

@PrettyTattiiex3 Well I guess they are both "light modifiers" - so in that sense they are similar. The idea is taking the light and trying to affect the quality of it (hard light vs soft light).

Nice tutorial. Would have been nice to show some sample shots of the outcome.

@trinhk Thanks for the comment- yeah I probably should have added some images. Thanks for the suggestion - I'll try to work that in next time.

Your videos Rock.
Could you give a tutorial on the smaller size needed to light a full body?
Also the silver or white interior when the soft box is bigger does one gives better light?
Thank You

@ErwinListSanchez Mine has a silver interior. A white interior probably gives a slightly softer quality of light, but also a slightly lower level of output. Not a huge difference either way.
