RALENO Photography Lighting Kit, 8.5 x 10ft Backdrop Stand with Green Screen, 5 x 85W 5500K Softbox Studio Lighting Kit with Umbrellas for Product, Portrait and Video Shoot Photography

Decided to get this product after starting my side hobby/business in photography. This setup is more than worth the cost. It came with a great carrying case, 3 back drops, 4 lights and much more. I've used it numerous times for indoor shoots and once you set it up the first time, it is a breeze to setup every other time. The stand that holds the backdrops is not the fanciest and can be a little flimsy, but it has been worth it's weight in gold for me and my business. I was very impressed with the quality of the kit for such a low price. I would recommend this to any beginning and mid-level photographer.

I'm just getting started with studio lighting and needed an inexpensive, quick setup to play around with. After reading the reviews, I decided to take a chance on RALENO and I'm honestly glad I did. This kit has everything you need to take great photos/videos. It's quick & easy to put it all together, the lights are good and the backdrop is huge. Love the heft of the screens, they aren't see-through and seem well made. VERY good value for the money. Best of all the company stands behind their product. This kit has a lot of plastic pieces, and my kit had a few snags. One of the stands had a problem with the screw and didn't want to stand straight, along with a bulb that didn't work and an issue with the crossbar. They were quick to respond to my email, and went over and above to make sure I quickly got a replacement and was happy (thanks for all your help Cassie!). Really great customer service. As others have said, this is a complete studio setup and a steal for the price. It's not pro quality build, but it is sturdy enough to get started and get some good use out of before you level up. Customer service is very helpful and they'll get you sorted out quickly if you have any problems. The downsides are minimal. Everything is adjustable, and if you like jigsaw puzzles you may be able to get it all back in the handy travel bag. I'm not so optimistic I can do it - definitely follow the reviews that mention taking a pic at unboxing. And the reflector is so small as to be laughable. But then you're not buying this for the reflector. There's a lot of plastic, and it's obviously not an industrial/pro grade setup. That said, I'm very happy with everything I got for the price. Excellent value, excellent customer service.

First off: I have a friend who has been acting for decades. He spent 7 years in LA so he knows his way around a studio. He looked at all of the equipment in this box and was pretty impressed by all of it. When he heard it was only $150 his jaw dropped an he said it 'is a steal." You do get a LOT in here. You get two soft boxes which are nice and bright. Then you get two light dispensers (which look like umbrellas and give off a softer light) the green screen with three different colored sheets -green, white, and black- for backgrounds. It is all very easy to put together and quite large. The screen in my pictures only has 3 of the four poles used to hang the sheets. Speaking of sheets, the screens themselves are nice. They feel like bed sheets and seem like they'll hold up for a while. You can adjust the height for everything- the lights and the screen so you can suit it to whatever need you have! If you want a good entry point into youtubing or object creating this is a great setup to own!

I loved this larger setup, however the enclosed green screen doesn't seem to fit the full dimensions of the frame. It's great for sitting still in front of it, but if you have to do any movement, this will not work in your favor. Since there are only 3 clips and the screen doesn't feed through any of poles, the screen doesn't stay tight to the setup. We had to add additional clips to help reduce the wrinkles and shadows. Mind you, we couldn't get rid of them completely. The lighting that came with the kit was good. It was helpful to have two umbrellas and two box lights. Our church used it for our Christmas production and it was difficult to get the kids to do what they needed to do and not have it going everywhere. Some of it may be due to user error since it was our first time with this kind of setup. Overall build quality was worth it for the money. It was easy to setup and take down. The tripods for the screen were difficult to get even and stay even. Tips we found out after using: -Make sure you use some of the lighting for the actual green screen to light it. We found the umbrella lighting best for people and the box lighting best to light the green screen -There were times we used additional lighting to help light the green screen, so just something to keep in the back of your head.

I’m so glad I got this photography lighting kit! It came with everything I needed to start learning — lights, stands, multiple backdrops, and more. It’s been the perfect setup for practicing portraits and product shots at home. Everything was easy to assemble and use, and I love having a dedicated space to shoot now. Highly recommend for beginners or anyone looking to build a home studio!
