Photo Basics 403 uLite 3-Light Kit Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I needed a three point lighting set of lights for a minimal budget to do some video filming for the company I work for. I'm an amateur videographer with solid experience in video editing, but not a lot of knowledge on equipment, so this looked simple enough for me to use for my video shoot.
All three lights come on lightweight tripod-like mounts that can be adjusted for height. It's easy to adjust the height, but collasping the tripod frame for travel requires some muscle to close the three legs. Setting up the soft boxes was easy enough (the top part that holds the light and box has to be pushed into the tripod frame. Then push the umbrella like hinges all the way back behind the light bulb mount until the are fully expanded. Screw the lightbulb in and cover with the diffuser that attaches with velcro. The two soft boxes give off the same amount of wattage, so for true 3-point lighting, the fill light should be bounced off a wall or positioned farther back from the subject.
All three come with fairly long cords so I didn't need an extension cord for indoor filming. The three lights are relatively light and easy to carry. They aren't heavy duty lights, so if you need something that holds up after frequent use and travel, I'd recommend something else.
Lastly, I needed to get a storage case for them and didn't want to break the bank, so I got one of those hard, plastic golf club travel cases and the lights fit in the case perfectly with room to spare.
