they are bright perfect for the product photography lighting that I needed them for and also these lights do red and blue green and so many other rainbow colors!!!!! Cant wait to order more!

Before I bought these softbox lights, I was using window lighting for my product photography and was frustrated. I would have to wait for certain times of day to take photos so that the light was entering the window the way I wanted, and those times of day were always changing with the season. My photos were blurry because I was having to set slower shutter speeds to get the effect I wanted. It was very hard to get uniform photos because the light was so changeable. I spent a long time in post processing (Lightroom Classic and Photoshop) to get an accurate color match.Now, I am able to have consistent, controllable light whenever I need it, and from two sources, which means I can control the shadows if needed. I usually just use one light and a white bounce card because the softbox does such a good job. I don't need to worry about any light reflections because of the diffuser screen. The bulbs included are super powerful. If I could change one thing, it would be the ability to control the brightness of the lights, but that's a tiny thing. It's easy enough to get the effect I want by changing the distance between the light and the subject.I have also found these to be endlessly useful in social media marketing videos. It's much easier to make tiktoks/reels when you have a big source of good light! And since I wear glasses I like that I don't get the circular ring light reflection I used to spend so much time avoiding. Even if the softbox is reflected in my glasses, it looks much more natural, similar to a window if you're not paying attention. These are much more powerful than a ring light as well, which means less work setting things up precisely to get the ring light close enough. I haven't pulled out my old ring light since I got these and have been making more content because it's so much easier now.

Great product, and even better price. I use this light daily for conference calls and have even used it outdoors for some photography. Just as good as those overpriced other options.

Honestly this little add-on is pretty simple to use but I recommend understanding a bit about photography and lighting before expecting miracles. That said, I accidentally took two of the best pictures I have ever taken with my iPhone 7+ just playing around with this thing.

If you read the strobist website and find yourself wanting to get into off shoe flash photography this is the best combination of price and quality for an entry level kit. I'd buy another if that says anything. The umbrella aren't the best I've ever seen so while this is a good kit it just isn't wowing enough to merit a five star review.

I like that these collapse into a small package. It takes a second to take apart and put together though. The color of the lights is neither too cool or too warm. Great for small product photography.

This product is GREAT! Easy to understand product tutorial comes with it! (for those that do not understand tech-makes things very clear) I will be ordering more Xenvo products! (this review took awhile, as, it was a gift, had to wait to get it officially)I take product photography for online sales and this will improve my pics!

It's not ETTL but it dos everything you need to execute manual flash photography. A real value for getting started with flash photography.
