    Hi, They are great for web photography. It gives you a clean white background with no shadows.
    It’s not me it’s the espresso talking.

    If you're talking about the transparent white cloth boxes - they're great. And all you'd really need are a couple of photo floods to go along with it. Big hot lights are great. But you could set yourself up for under $200 if you're willing to use hardware store clamp lights with photoflood bulbs. It's the "light tent" that makes the difference.
