Anyone used lights from these people?

Have a look at some of these Strobist discussions they are the same as the mentioned Mettle brand http://www.flickr.com/search/groups/?m=discuss&w=71917374%40N00&q=quantuum

Also Ed Bray from this forum has some and reviewed them http://www.talkphotography.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=272115

Surely a light and battery pack is pretty portable?

 

[Mahoneyd187]

Hmmm these look cheap in a good way, if you bought from that site would you get spanked for customs tax and duty

 

[The23rdman]

Theres's no customs and duty in the eu.

 

[Mahoneyd187]

Nice

 

[The23rdman]

Innit.

 

[DEANSUPREME]

So is the set posted above a good intro lighting set for beginners?Does seem a good price for them.

 

[The23rdman]

They're a great price. Unless you need them on location look at the R600+ and R300+ down the page a bit.
