Comment and opinions welcomed,,, Aug 12 08 06:08 pm Link Mission Photography wrote: thats pricey nice kit do. Aug 12 08 06:12 pm Link You really can't go wrong with those lights. I have had that same kit for 4 years. Works great Aug 12 08 06:46 pm Link Mission Photography wrote: I had someone use them here in my studio they had a very fast recycle time and you can also get a battery pack for them. According to the photog they had very consisten color and she had no problem with them ever. Plus you have the calumet warranty that is rather good. Aug 12 08 07:05 pm Link Nice lights. Great for Studio but they're on the heavy/big side if you plan on using them for travel. Aug 12 08 07:21 pm Link I own two Travelite 750 watts. Excellent lights and build quality. Somewhat heavy; Make sure that you have some strong stands or sand bags. Aug 12 08 08:08 pm Link I have the 2250 watt kit. With my student discount, it was only $1650 for 3 750 Watt heads. Everything in my port was shot with these. Aug 13 08 01:12 am Link they aren't as light as their name implies. Aug 13 08 02:22 am Link I have that one (Travelite), no problems. I like them. Aug 13 08 03:23 am Link Just wanted to say thanks for all your input. Very much appreciated. This helps in deciding what light set to buy... Aug 13 08 09:00 am Link I have 3 750's. Great lights for the price. Excellent warrenty of something happens to them. I have mine repair several times under warrenty without a problem. Aug 13 08 10:29 am Link I have the earlier versions (they don't take the external battery), for over 10 years. No problems to report. Aug 13 08 01:58 pm Link Patchouli Nyx wrote: Lol... true. Great lights and reliable. Just buy them. Is it ok to say that they are preferable to A/B's? Aug 13 08 03:05 pm Link I have 7 750s some over 12 years old and still working. Aug 13 08 03:46 pm Link |
