A) Features
These units offer a convenient yet economical method of modern studio These units offer a convenient yet economical method of modern studio
lighting, suitable for use with conventional still digital or video cameras. They
provide a soft uniform diffused light. Ideal for portraits in a confided area or
web based product photography, and can be combined with a light pod
or pop up light tent. You will find the versatility of the kit useful for most types
and styles of photography, as the flicker free lamps are color balanced to
5500k enabling them to be used with many other studio lighting products.
All light bulbs are energy efficient and CE and ROHS certified. These types
of bulb are called CFL which has less heat generation than the normal
bulb. It further reduces the effect of overheating by its cool light features.
Each bulb can be operated individually on the control panel. So you can
have complete control the light power.

Softbox Assembling
Care should be taken when a soft box is assembled for the first time, due to
the canvas not yet being stretched. You will find that assembly will become
easier after a few times. (It does take a little strength to initially erect- the rods
are powerfully sprung so care should be taken and we advise that protective
eyewear should be worn.)
1)1) Remove the Canvas and rods from the carry case; also remove any
packaging from the continuous Light Head.
2) Spread out the Canvas on a clean surface with the silver foil side visible
and place the speedring in to the center, you may need to align the holes of
the speedring to the corners of the softbox.
3) Insert the tip of the Rods in to the hole of the canvas material corner pock-
ets.
4) Insert the larger tip of the rods in to the speedring. You may need to push
down on the rods to the place them in the speedring holes, slightly bending
the rods.
5) Repeat the above method on the corner opposite the 1st rod you have
placed in.
6)6) On the Internal light diffuser there are small clips on each of the four cor-
ners , use these to secure the light diffuser inside the softbox, you will find a
loop they connect on to approximately half way down the rod
7) Finally take the External light diffuser and stretch over the four corners. Use
the velcro edges down the sides to secure the diffuser in place.
Do not hold onto lamp sockets whilst installing the softbox.
