NEEWER 700W Equivalent Softbox Lighting Kit, 2Pack UL Certified 5700K LED Lighting Bulbs, 24x24 inches Softboxes with E26 Socket, Photography Continuous Lighting Kit Photo Studio Equipment

I love these lights. I take photos of clothing for my business, and these do the job well. Very good value for the cost. The lights sometimes seem a bit too bright for what I use them for, but the color is a nice, bright white. They're what you think of when someone says "professional lighting." I've been able to catch flaws on clothing items with these that I otherwise could not see. If you're using these to take photos or videos of people, these do a great job at lighting up the space. They aren't difficult to set up or disassemble and don't take up too much room. I've had to move locations with these and they pack up well with the bag these lights come with. Other lights I've tried come with USB plug-ins, but these come with classic power cords for the wall, which was also a huge plus for me.

I occasionally need some controlled diffused lighting and these seemed like a good choice. The stands and reflectors are fine and should last well enough with some care. They fold up compactly but I'll store them in a plastic storage container they are, at least for myself, more convenient than the zippered pouches. Plus they are stackable and labelable. For an occasional user, I wish someone would allow the reflector to be folded without removing the bulb. The bulb socket feels ceramic so that's good, but I did have to bend the center pin up a bit to make contact with the center contact of the bulb. Minor point but you might check this (unplugged, of course) if your light does not work. The lights themselves are fine. 5700k is a tad on the cool side of pure white. Personally I like the warmer side but my camera has the ability to set the white balance to 5700k and the results seem fine. General color rendition is good but I feel like the greens are a tad muted. Again, just my personal observation and preferences. On the plus side, a sequence of 1/8000-second photos produced very closely exposed images indicating a these lights are reasonably flicker free. No banding has been seen on video. And when the power is switched off, the light fades out suggesting a large capacitor to filter the power to reduce flicker. Light output is fair. Sure, a longer shutter speed is always there. What I ended up doing is buying two more matching LED bulbs and using light bulb splitter adapters doubled the light output. This was a good move has it reduced my shutter speed and gives me options to place the lights further away. So, if you will need these occasionally, these would be fine with care. If you are going to set them up and leave them up, you'll probably be good. Everyday setup and take downs by a travelling photographer, well, you'll just have to take really good care of them. And don't forgot about the double light idea. BT recommended with care

Overall this is an amazing set of lights. The quality of photos and videos is much better. Perception of depth is good as well once you start using these lights. Setup: All the items comes very well boxed and packaged by the manufacturer. The setup process was fairly easy and took less than 10 minutes to unpack and setup for the first use Quality: The box comes with a pair of bulbs, nicely boxed in. Once set up the light was adequate enough for some great shots. This is very good for a home studio or vlogging setup. Stand: The stand itself was a bit tricky to assemble for the first time. However, once I got used to the first one setting up the second one was a breeze. The only issue I saw was that above 5 feet, the stand being top heavy becomes a bit unstable. i had to adjust the legs again to give the unit some stability. Once you are aware of this, you will be able to take care of ensuring the legs are supporting the unit well and stable. The wires are also heavy and when the stand is farther way from a power source, extending the wires can make the stand unstable as well. This is the same for most other softbox kits as well. So not restricted to the Neewer ones alone. Highly recommend this gear for amateur or professional setup.

I recently purchased two softboxes for improving my video lighting setup as a full-time remote worker. Overall, I found them to be easy to assemble and effective for the price point. The assembly process was straightforward, and I appreciated the simplicity of putting them together. They provide excellent lighting for my video calls and work well for my needs. While the included bag adds convenience for storage and transportation, I found the kickstands to be somewhat flimsy. To prevent them from easily tipping over, I would recommend weighting them down. However, despite this minor issue, they haven’t fallen over on their own, which is reassuring. In conclusion, these softboxes have successfully fulfilled their purpose for me, and I would consider purchasing them again. Despite the slight inconvenience with the kickstands, they offer good value for the price and I recommend them for anyone looking to enhance their WFH video lighting setup.

top notch! studio lighting, i use for my art studio, very professional and bright

There are no instructions to put this together, although not hard, it is possible to be a little bit confusing. So far the lights are going great! I am a amateur and just starting out in taking pictures and making youtube videos so these lights work great for me so far. I was worried even though all the online reviews and videos show that it goes very bright even in basements and it does a fairly good job. I live in a condo and all the lights emit a bright orange colour so all my videos and pictures are always orange when I take them. But with this I noticed an immediate difference and no longer is there any orange in my pictures or vids. Overall, I thought this was a decent deal and a good product so far.

First off, everything arrived in good condition and I set them up very easily on my own. I'm a webcam model so I needed some good lighting for my videos and streaming online at a good price. I had looked around on amazon.com and amazon.ca for a while for something available that suited my needs. I ended up going for this one and was worried the lighting may not be warm enough but I have just tried them and filmed a short 30 sec video to test them out and WOW!!! They are pretty amazing. The room I am in is small and has no window and a very dim ceiling light and yet I look so clear and well lit. If you wanted it to be a bit brighter then I would suggest a using a window, or just some extra lights would do the trick but I like the amount of light they provide and for my needs they are perfect!

A very nice, compact package with a well designed, soft sided carrying case. The lights assemble quickly. The stands are good quality and have snap lock height adjustments. They have 85 watt (300 watt equivalent) fluorescent bulbs. I'm not sure what the Colour Rendition Index (CRI) but since we are using them to illuminate a green screen, it isn't critical. We are very happy with these lights.

I used it for a couple shoots and it works pretty good. not a crazy brightness but it does the job. however if you are taking pictures of a group of people it's harder to bring the lights close enough to illuminate the subject and not have them in the frame. For a one subject shoot it's perfect for a beginner. I recommend this product for beginners. Pretty good price for what you get.

Initially, I bought a single softbox and found while it improved the lighting conditions, they were not ideal. Then I bought this twin set which upped my game considerable. They're easy to use, lightweight and height adjustable so can be repositioned constantly. The included bag is amply sized for everything and a bit more and gives the impression of being durable. Made a great choice.
