NEEWERPhotography Lighting kit with Backdrops, 8.5x10ft Backdrop Stands, UL Certified 5700K 800W Equivalent 24W LED Umbrella Softbox Continuous Lighting, Photo Studio Equipment for Photo Video Shoot

Super simple to put together. Sturdyish… overall I love it.

I like this product very much

I ordered this kit to get started in portraiture photography. For the cost you get a lot of items which was great. I even appreciated that it came with the lightbulbs for the lights.Pros:* So many items. With all the items included it provides a good starting point for learning this type of photography.* The light stands are pretty durable and hold the weight of the included lights very well, even when fully extended to their highest extent.* I appreciate that it came with white, black, and green fabric backgrounds.* The included clips are great for holding the fabric secure to the backdrop frame.* Backdrop frame is easy to assemble and disassemble even for a single person to do alone.* The carrying cases are GREAT. Love that everything stores neatly away into the bags, and the whole collection is easily carried around because it isn't overly heavy.Cons:* The backdrop frame cross bars concern me in their durability in the long run. The way they connect together to make the backdrop wider works, but isn't the most secure system. Good enough for the cost and to hold a single backdrop, even a wide one.* The backdrop material is fairly thin. More so an issue with the white backdrop as light passes through it pretty easily so it is best if there is no ambient light coming from behind it unless you want there to be.* Would have liked if the bag for the backdrop stand had fit inside the other bag so there would only have been a single bag to carry around. As is though is fine because it keeps the weigh down.* Really would have been great if the lights had brightness adjustments, but at the price that is asking a lot.* The square light reflectors would have been better if they had an internal light reflector as well because when the light is on you still have a hotspot in the center of the included reflector rather than the light being fully spread across the entire reflector surface.Overall It was a good purchase for learning the basics of lighting, and understand what works and what doesn't work. It has led me down the path of knowing what pieces I'd need to replace to take move to the next level. 7/10 would recommend for beginners.

This package was worth the money the stands are a little light and fragile but it does the job

Easy set up...Great for beginners

Updated Review: October 4th 2016My wife and I wanted to update our initial review from a 3 stars rating to a 5 star rating based on the amazing costumer service we received from a customer service representative by the name of Sue from the seller standbyon. After mentioning the same issues we experienced as we discussed in the original review below, Sue was able to resolve everything within a week's time. It was unfortunate that the initial kit arrived with a few dysfunctional items, but after receiving replacement lights and soft boxes without any current malfunctioning issues, we can only assume that the original items either were damaged during packaging or more likely, during shipping. In either case, Sue was wonderful to work with and she completely resolved our issues. As mentioned in our original review, you are getting what you are paying for; however, it is a wonderful starter kit and standbyon's costumer service was amazing in resolving our concerns. I hope this review helps.Original Review:First, this packaged arrived on time and the external shipping package was undamaged. Ironically, many of the interior boxes were dented due to the two poorly designed bags and one bulb box appeared to be opened prior with multiple punctures and dents in it. This punctured, potentially pre-opened box, may mean the bulb was used and/or tested prior and thus it would explain why it blew 3 minutes after turning it on.Why I Bought This Kit:I recently bought this product for my wife as an introductory kit so she could explore her photography hobby. In general we are happy with the amount of items you get with this kit. However, you do definitely get what you pay for.Pros:-This kit is a good starting point with many of the introductory components a photography might need to get started as a hobby photographer.-The backdrop bars allow for future backdrop growth with wider or shorter attaching bars for future backdrops purchases. However, it already comes with 3 backdrops (Green, Black, White).Cons:- Both of the Softbox diffusers as incredibly unstable (one more than the other). They frequently shift down no matter how tight you tighten the knobs. We had to rig them both in order to get them to stay stationary, but for the price, it's doable.- 2 out of the 4 bulbs already blew out. We hope this is merely the bulbs getting bounced around during shipping, but it is disappointing; especially since one bulb (from the previously mentioned damaged/opened box) blew out within 3 minutes of turning it on. The other one lasted 45 minutes. The other two are holding up well, and we replaced the burnt out ones with new bulbs with out future incident thus far so we do not believe it is an electrical dysfunction with the product.- All of the stands are a bit wobbly, but again, they work and you get what you pay for.- The 2 bags that come with the kit are designed in a manner that doesn't protect any of the equipment placed within it. Sadly, that are very loss and bounce around quite a bit. Yet again, for the price, it is fixable and not an issue.Conclusion:My wife loves the kit, but she is concerned about its longevity and future performance after a few sessions of setup and takedown. We know it is a cheaper set, but we would have hoped the soft box diffusers would have at least all functioned as advertised. It was also disappointing that 2 out of the 4 included bulbs already blew out (within 45 minutes). We hope this review helps.

Me encanta este kit. Fácil de usar y excelente calidad.

I bought this a while ago. I'm posting my review after using it for a while. The set looks great when setup. Everything came packed in the storage bags. The bags have plenty of space and you can even fit some extras in them. Setup was simple and of good quality for most of the items. The backdrops included are just, ok. The fabric was nice and soft but held wrinkles easily. The various lights allowed for versatile lighting in my photos. All in all for the price it's a great buy.
