LINCO Lincostore Photo Video Studio - Review

As a professional photographer, I need a reliable and easy-to-use photo and video studio light kit, which is why I decided to try out the LINCO Lincostore Photo Video Studio Light Kit AM169. This kit includes everything you need to set up a professional photo and video shoot, including two umbrella-style softbox reflectors, two premium photography white photo soft umbrellas, four pretty smooth shape lamp holders, a professional photographic backdrop stand kit, four standard photography light bulbs, three professional premium photography backdrop muslins in black, white, and green, and a premium quality carrying bag for photography equipment. After using this kit for several months, I'm impressed with its performance and versatility.

The two umbrella-style softbox reflectors are the highlight of this kit. The 24 x 24 inch softboxes come with white square diffusers, which eliminate shadows and soften the light stream. They are made of black nylon cloth with a highly reflective silver internal face inside to direct the light toward the object. Additionally, they can be used as silver photo umbrellas for satisfying different effect photography shooting needs. It takes just a few seconds to put up and fold the softboxes like an umbrella, making them quick to operate and suitable for high-frequency moving studio settings. The umbrellas also come with quick operations that are suitable for fast-paced photo shoots. These softboxes are great for portrait photography, product photography, and video shoots.

The two premium photography white photo soft umbrellas are another great addition to this kit. The 33 inch premium quality nylon cloth diffuses studio lighting or reflects weak light toward objects, providing a better environment for product photos taking, video making, portrait shooting, and broadcasting. The huge light-emitting area diffuses to eliminate shadow and soften lighting, making them ideal for shooting portraits and products. They are an essential tool for creating soft, flattering light and are perfect for beginner photographers.

The four pretty smooth shape lamp holders that come with the kit have a better shape for holding when the photographer is adjusting lighting angles. They are made of engineering plastic for durability and have E26/E27 sockets made of fire-resistant material for safety. The general angles can be adjusted to satisfy photographers' needs, and spring design makes the photo umbrella hole easy to use. The elasticity of the springs is used to hold the photography umbrella stick faster than traditional secured knob, making it easier to use for photographers on the go.

The professional photographic backdrop stand kit with a pair of 6.7 ft background support tripod stands system with 3 sectional crossbars adjustable from 4.4 ft to 6.7 ft wide is portable, lightweight, but sturdy. Its diameter of largest tube of 1 inch (25.4mm) is thicker than other similar crossbars. The sturdy tube connector keeps the central tube more stable than other brand's wobbly stand, and it is suitable for many photography accessories, such as a backdrop muslin or backdrop clips holder.

The four standard photography light bulbs are 23W high efficiency 110V-50Hz daylight CFL studio lighting bulbs that have a service life of about 10,000 hours. The spiral fluorescent lighting lifts brightness to 1600 lumens and is attached to E26/E27 sockets of lamp holders, and the high CRI ensures that the original color of the object is preserved in the photo or video.

The three professional premium photography backdrop muslins in black, white, and green screens are perfect for studio photo taking, live broadcasting, photography video-making, and game live playing. The cloth is made of complex material specially for photographic use, and the backdrop without pocket design is much better for photographers to use; they can either use 5 ft for width 10 ft for length or 10 ft for width 5 ft for length. This backdrop is perfect for shooting portraits or products, and its versatility makes it great for any type of photography or video work.

Finally, the premium quality carrying bag for photography equipment is made of 420D oxford cloth material, which is durable and heavy-duty, making it waterproof and suitable for outdoor or moving shoots. It is designed to hold the entire studio photography kit in one place, making it easy to store and transport.

Overall, the LINCO Lincostore Photo Video Studio Light Kit AM169 is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a reliable and comprehensive photo and video studio lighting kit. The kit includes everything you need for a professional shoot, and the quality of the components is impressive. The softbox reflectors and photography white photo soft umbrellas provide soft, flattering lighting, while the lamp holders, backdrop stand kit and photography backdrop muslins are versatile and sturdy. The kit is easy to use and transport, making it perfect for both amateur and professional photographers. I highly recommend this kit to anyone in need of a high-quality lighting setup.
