Can anyone tell me the difference between the two umbrella kits that B&H offers? They are the same price, same product photo but two different product numbers. I've seen this (these) kit(s) recommended here and it's about all I'm looking to spend after selling off all my studio gear 20 years ago. Anyway here's the two links.

They're closed until tomorrow at 8:30 EST. Trying to see if anyone has ordered the second one as it has 9 reviews versus 400+ for the other one.

I ordered this one (external link)

I'm looking at a larger umbrella and a softbox at the moment as well. I did make a DIY Beauty dish a few weeks ago which I really like.

I actually looked at my order from several years ago and I ordered the IMDFUMK1. Top notch equiptment...I think you made a mistake!!:)

Serious, my order did say IMDFUMK1...but honestly, I think they are identical. You should be fine with either. Pretty good stuff for 100 bucks.

Like I said, pretty good for the money...you should be happy. Get yourself a few sandbags and you'll be dialed. I use mine with speedlights. I'm contemplating some monolights so a few more sandbags might be in the works. AK
