Well, now that you posted this you may have some new competing bids ;-) (if it is any good)

Its priced about right for $200. But you will out grow it in about 2 months. They look to be the same as the lil Flashpoint lights at Adorama. They are like $50 each. And they are about as bright as a hot shoe flash. So 3 plus stands and bag are decient for $200. They might be great at first. I just think you will out grow them pretty quick.

That said..... I might get them anyway. For $200... It might be just what you need to get started. After useing them for a bit you will learn what you need and can make a good decision on what to upgrade to. And you do not need to throw these out when you do. They will make great hair lights or background accent lights. And even fill lights. They are weak compaired to real strobes but if you only want a fill they may do fine.

Im starting out I have two opus 150w strobe umbrellas. Would this set be any good for shooting group pictures?? 3-4 people..

For the level of product that they are.... they are probably fine. But that level is as "entry" as it gets.

3-4 people is probably about its limit.

thanks again

I've bought light stands, umbrellas, and backdrop stands from this guy. The quality is very good for the price, not top of the line by any means, but for the price.......
However, I cant vouch for lights and electronic things. Good luck.

Did you notice the shipping cost? ($224.41)
