PROS
-bi-colour lighting
-remote control for brightness and colour temperature, very handy
-shortcuts on remote for set brightness or kelvin temperature, but can also adjust both parameters in smaller increments
-softboxes fold, and are somewhat easier to set up than the versions which require rod insertion into a ring
CONS
-no inner baffle (to prevent hotspots on the front diffusion fabric)
-lights only slightly domed, which leads to hotspots on the front diffusion fabric (a bigger translucent dome would fill the softbox better, leading to a more even spread of light from the front diffusor)
-lighting stands are low-end, but will do fine for kit of this weight (I recommend sandbags, if you are ever going to use this outside in any sort of breeze)
NOTES
-85W is a useful amount of light (if there isn¡¯t too much ambient light to compete with), though I don¡¯t find these as bright as my 60W lights (which use a COB LED, instead of individual LED ¡°beads¡±, that may make a difference, I¡¯m not sure)
-this is a good option for a beginner or intermediate user, vloggers would also find this kit useful
MY STAR RATINGS:
1* substandard, mostly cons
2** barely acceptable, cons outweigh the pros
3*** meets the basic requirements, cons balance the pros
4**** good product, pros outweigh the cons
5 exceptional, all (or almost all) pros
