    Does anyone use Novatron Lights?
    I am trying to find out if the Novatron lights are any good.
    I was thinking on buying this set-up when I get the money.

    Novatron makes pretty good entry-level lighting. However, for that same amount of money, you might well be able to buy two or even three more powerful monolights such as Alien Bees.

    I guess it depends on whether you really need all the stands and accessories included with the Novatron kit (which are pretty cheaply made I might add). Also, whether you prefer a seperate power pack system (Novatron), or self-contained units (ABs).

    If it were me, for that budget I'd go with two AB units and better stands and modifiers. Then add a third light when I could afford it...
