LINCO Lincostore Photography Photo Table Top Studio Lighting Kit- 30 Seconds to Storage

Wow I am truly amazed on how nice these lights are! I am just getting into doing videos and I wanted to get some lights to do a couple product reviews. I didn't need huge light stands with large soft boxes. I have a nice workbench that I wanted to put a light on each end and shine down into the center where I was going to be sitting. The shot would be from my waist up so I didn't need the big lights. And these two tabletop lights really pack a punch. They are insanely bright. I don't know how these compared to any other lights but for what I am going to be using them for it's pretty much going to be perfect. They are pretty well made and are very light. I love that they have a drawstring on the front so you can control how wide the ray of light that comes out of it. And the Bonnet diffusers are the cat's meow. You can put the diffuser on so quick and less than seconds and you can lighten up your item that you are trying to light up for take the glow off of your face. They came well packed and for $40 you can't go wrong. I might get another set just so I can have some for my background lighting and maybe put one above my head for a hairline light. If you getting into videos or photos of products and want to do some videos of yourself from the waist up these are more than plenty. Yes I wish that I could control how bright they are like a dimmer switch but for now I am happy and would highly recommend them to someone new.I just wanted to add a couple of pictures of the lights and the last picture is only using the linco lights and shooting in 4k. They work great

PROSEasy to set up, I'm not a lighting professional and had no issue getting them togetherGreat price for two lighting fixtures with everything includedBright light, work as intendedGood range of motion in the headCONSWhile appropriate for tabletop, not exactly appropriate for desktop since the tripods take up quite a bit of spaceWhen I purchased these softbox lights I was hoping to get something small enough to put on the shelves by my computer. Like a lot of people, I am working from home right now and my digital video quality is really important for the work that I do.These seemed to be the smallest I could find that used a regular lightbulb. They are true to the dimensions given on the listing but I was still wishfully hoping I could fit them on my IKEA LACK shelving. Unfortunately they are too cumbersome, that if I bought a smaller tripod they would probably fall over from the weight. Instead I may end up purchasing a ceiling mount pole (it's really easy to remove the light from the tripod and attach to a lighting mount). Regardless, none of these issues are the fault of the product. The product works well as expected. I did replace the bulbs with some smart bulbs so that no matter where I end up putting the lighting equipment I can change the lighting easily from my phone rather than trying to reach. If you truly want a light that fits on a small shelf I recommend a smaller ring light, I just really wanted mine to work with my smart bulbs so I'll be looking at other solutions. For now, the light pictured here is sitting on top of my computer tower and as you can see the width of the tripod makes it difficult even for that. These lights are probably better suited for e-commerce folks who need to photograph their inventory, not people who want to light themselves on webcam.

Needed some decent lighting for a small room so when I seen these for as cheap as they were I had to get them and I have no regrets so far. The build quality seems to be pretty good for the price. Everything feels sturdy and solid enough, however, I can see the plasting handles used to tighten the mounts wearing down and possibly breaking over time. But they are inexpensive pieces to replace so no big deal. The light bulbs that came with this are smaller than I expected yet the light they put out exceeded my expectations! They are small enough as to not take up too much space but provide an ample amount of light for vlogging, product photography, or portraits. I'm extremely happy with my purchase!

Well packaged and easy to use, I like the size and portability.

I ordered these and they arrived earlier today than expected! (BONUS!)They were easy to put together, set up was fast and I got to work with my eBay listing product photography~ WOW! I thought I was doing ok with natural lighting but THESE have made it so that it's FUN, not discouraging, to play with 👍🏻☺️🥳I do wish they were a little taller but they are table top lights. I can always set them on items to lift them.Fantastic for a quick fix and needing them soon on a tight budget!THANK YOU!!

I'm shocked at the amazing high quality and value at this price point! Finally my face is softly, properly, professionally and perfectly lit during zoom meetings. No more red, speckled skin and unattractive shadowing. Super easy to set and strike. Stores in box slightly larger than a shoe box. I wear glasses and found that one light to my left and one to my right was perfect to avoid reflections. I wish I were this thrilled with all my Amazon purchases.

Right now I only have one set up, but it was easy to do. The only thing I would advise is get the version that has the three-light settings, or get different bulbs. The light bulb that comes with the set, even with the included diffusing screen is bright - works for my setup as an uplight, but I think might be to bright for me to use as a spot. We'll see once I get them both set up - I can move them farther out if I have to.Works great and I think is a great value for the price.

Love these. Higher quality than I thought they would be. I was looking at the huge soft boxes which would have taken up most of my craft room and then found these. Love the size. Actually a little bigger than I thought. But I love that they’re compact and very easy to put together and take apart. Come loose in the box. Would be nice to have a little storage bag for them but for the most part they’ll just be sitting on my desk. I have two on my 4’ wide desk and they work great. You can not have them on the floor and expect them to reach up to your desk. They do not extend that much. They came with 60w LED lightbulbs which I switched out for 100w LED. The only thing I HATE is how much we have to pay in Canada. I saw the same product for $40 in the US. I paid $140.
