Photography Lighting Kits And Background

July 11th, 2010 by admin

Is this softbox kit worth it?

Hello all,
I'm looking to invest on a light kit because I want to get serious about photography. I've been looking around but since I don't know much about kits I can't really tell why the price difference on some of these is high. I had seen one on line that came out to $500.00 including 3 softlights and a 10 x 20 background.

However I saw this one on ebay (lights only $179.99 back ground is 89.99 +14.00 shipping) Is it a good product?

A nice three light kit would go for around $2,000.

A decent background system with one canvas scroll and the stand will be about $900

Based on that, how do you think a kit for $179 is going to compare?
