monobloc lighting set

[brad_hersch]

Used to have a set of 3 white lightenings when they first came out and

loved them. Sold them years ago and am looking to buy new. Looking

for 3 strobes...main, fill and backgroud. Want a kit including 2

umbrellas 2 main stands and 1 shorter background stand. Must have

proportional modeling lights. White Lightening will cost a bit over

$1400 or more. Porter shows some stuff also. Any suggestions in the

$1000 to $1500 range?

Thanks

Brad,

 

<p>You might want to consider Alien Bees. They're made by the same company that does White Lightnings, just not quite as high-end a build. The casings are lexan instead of metal, and the modeling light is just an edison bulb, although it is proportional. Lots of people seem to be quite happy with them.

 

<p>If I understand right, they take the exact same accessories as the White Lightnings.
