Hi sture,
looks very good and for the way we use this equipment it's perfect. I've bought one of this Photo studio kits last year but only with 2 octagonal Daylights (with diffuser)


The all best is to have a room on which you can install this Photo studio permanently (I don't have the space ). When not, just a good hint for the green screen storage:
take a plastic tube as large as the fabric is and roll it on the tube for storage rather than folding so you don't get annoying wrinkles on the sheet.
The best result on green screen technique can only be achieved with a smooth and wrinkle-free sheet which is evenly enlighten.
Hope you will have a lot of fun with this kit

Hi sture,
great kit, it can be real fun to work with steady light (dolls rarely move )
I have one with 2 rectangular diffusors 60x40cm and 250 Watt lamps each (I guess the same as you).
If you do not want to take pictures with high ISO, you might need a stable tripod.
This picture of Leonie is taken with one diffusor, camera at f 7.1, ISO 100, 1.3 sec shutter

That looks pretty cool - not as expensive as I'd have thought....
Can't wait to see what you come up with!

Hi sture

I have a similar setup too. Those flouros look like the 125Watt. They run at 5500 kelvin so they are very white, like the sun (but don't get hot) My local s/market had some cheap 70 and 100Watt halogen globes that are 2700 kelvin that put out a more yellow light (and get very hot). Handy to have both to mix and match for different situations.

Dee and MaDee wanted to show you their globes.....
Have fun as I know you will.

Woohoo, great set now we do expect more great pictures

Yes, low energy lamps are the way to go! Good for your electricity bill and they don´t get hot either
