I was happy with these when I first got into studio lighting.

Thanks Tim the stickies are great! I really only saw a few reccomondations for cheap lighting in those threads and most were still more than what I was looking to spend. I am trying to stay around 400 dollars. I know I can get no where near the quality of most of the reccomended sets but this is just a hobby for me and I want to stay on good terms with the wife.
I am really looking for something to use with PhotoKey and a chromokey backdrop. Just alot of fun to play around with, but I really need some lighting to get better results.
thanks.

Looks great! That is what I need a nice basic set.

Have a look in the review sticky, or look at the threads I started for the review of my GY-180 ebay strobes. They came from Hong Kong, cost not very much, and work very well.

I think I have decided on this set http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=370051116091&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=024
or this set http://cgi.ebay.com/3-Studio-Flash-Strobe-2-softbox-3-backdrop-wireless_W0QQitemZ310049640379QQihZ021QQcategoryZ3 0087QQtcZphotoQQcmdZViewItem
A little more than I want to spend. What do you guys think?
