I'm looking to buy two lights, a brolly and a softbox and the stands.

Any idea where the best place to get them from would be? And would it be better to buy them in a set or seperately? This will be my first studio lighting, as I'm sure you can tell, so any help as to which lights to buy would be great!
 
I spent a while before christmas researching the same. Most of the kits look like a good deal, but the interfit 150 kit got a really good review in digital photography last year (I think it was that mag). It really depends on what you are going to photograph.
In the end, I plumped for the 3 head kit for around £350. I've used it for up to 7 people in one shot and was easily bright enough. I've no doubt that if I decide to get into portraiture more seriously in the future that I'll want to upgrade but this seems to give me all I need for the forseeable future
Have a look at Karlu.com. They have a load of options.
I'll try to find the review and scan it.
 
Thanks very much :) I was interested to know about the interfit kits. I think the 150 is in my local Jessops, or at least something similar, and the man has taken a liking to me since I started spending hundreds in there after Christmas and I'm getting a decent discount on everything :D I'll have to go and have a proper chat with them tomorrow :)
