About Ebay

enquiringminds asked:


I am a photographer’s assistant and I am trying to purchase a new set of lights but I am undecided about which one to get. It is down to these two sets from ebay:

First Set:
2 7 ft Light Stands
2 Strobe Lights (user manual included),
1 sync cord
1 Two channels Radio Trigger System
2 AC Swivel Adapters
2 33″ Umbrellas

Second Set (two of each):
Professional Series Tripod (superior quality, pressure die-cast aluminum construction.)
Professional Series Light Holder
Professional Studio Umbrella
White Studio Umbrella 32″ Wide

So based on this little bit of info which one would you purchase regardless of price? It might help to know that the lights will be used for portraits and that I already have a set of strobe lights but I’m not sure if I want to get the same kind of lights or if I should get something different. Is it a bad idea to use different kinds of lights for one shoot? Thansk so much.
Oh and the second set comes with continous lights…forgot to mention that:
