Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I can't complain one bit about the strobes in this kit. The umbrellas were good too, would have liked a few more inches on radius but this will do fine. The soft boxes looked like trash or cheap until you put them together then they are totally functional and stout. I will leave mine put together all the time but it would be nice to have an easier way to fold them down for transport. The stands were of good quality and works just fine. The battery in the remote trigger (on the camera side) was dead on arrival but I did a search and found a package of five batteries for around $5 so I'm sure it will work fine then. The remote receiver uses two AAA batteries as well. The strobes will all work as slaves to a speedlight if you use manual mode which does not put out the pre-flash for such as red eye reduction, etc. Otherwise the strobes will sync with the pre-flash and not the flash itself and the shutter will snap after the strobes flash. Not a big deal as it's a flash problem not a strobe issue. The cases are nice as well. I do wish that the strobe caps were deep enough to keep the modeling lights in the strobe unit instead of having to take them out each time for transport and before you are able to put the cap on. The barn doors and snoots, filters, etc do a pretty good job as well. Medium quality for what it is.
I would highly recommend this kit to any starting photographer and/or semi-pro wanting a good strobe kit without spending thousands of dollars. A power strip included in this kit with a 12 foot extension would only enhance this kit.
