Our Best Selling Monolight Strobe Photography Lighting Kit!
Studio photographers have long relied on strobe lights, such as the SB-160 Monolite in this kit, for photographic lighting in the studio. This type of photography lighting eliminates a lot of heat that is generated by "Hot" or continuous photoflood lights. Also, strobe light has the benefit of consistent color temperature, stopping action, and the necessary intensity to bring out the full spectrum of color. When combined with umbrellas, strobe lights provide soft, natural lighting that enhances portraits, fashion, or product photography giving the photographer greater control over both the technical and creative aspects of the image making process. RPS Studio has designed this affordable entry level studio kit to enables the photographer to hone his skills while creating professional quality photographic images.

The RPS Studio Portable Monolite Kit features 3, 160 watt second (w/s) monolites for a total power output of 480 watt seconds; adjustable from full down to 1/8th power.

Affordable Photography Lighting Kit with Vastly Improved Light Quality!
Reflectors:
A new high tech design used by RPS Studio gives the reflectors in this photography lighting kit a big quality improvement over older style reflectors that have been on the market for years. This new design eliminates concentric circles and hot spots resulting in vastly improved light quality and thus, final picture quality. Additionally, each reflector in this kit is designed with durability in mind. The sockets are ceramic, rated to 660 watt reducing the chance socket failure due to overheating, even with 500 watt bulbs. The on/off switch is in the UL/CSA 2 wire line cord, away from the heat of the socket. The socket is designed to move smoothly forward and backward in the reflector giving the photographer greater artistic control over the light width and edge sharpness.

Each reflector bayonet mounts to the ceramic socket for a secure fit…no more stripped threads. The socket mounts to the light stand via a secure umbrella adaptor that locks the head securely in place. One additional feature of the reflector is the ability to accept umbrellas.
