Westcott Spiderlites

I was watching Photoshop user TV and saw Scott and Matt talking about Westcott’s Spiderlites. Has anybody ever used them? I entered to win a free kit but if it turns out I don’t win I am still thinking about buying a set. Any suggestions?

As it turns out, I'm pretty sure I'll be using mine for part of a shoot tonight. It's for a magazine feature, so I won't be able to show the final pics yet, but I'll try to find an outtake to post.

Great light... :cool:

I'm looking forward to hearing what you have to say about them Steve.

If you are interested, you can make your own for a fraction of the cost of buying them.

And hear is how to make the softbox to go with them.

If that isn't enough, here is a video of Scott talking about and using the Spiderlites.
