How do you diffuse the light? Can an umbrella be mounted?

I think there is a light kit that's sold seperately. It can be flush mounted.

no, this is just a stand. you need a bracket on top of the stand for whatever you're using. I assume you're using a hotshoe flash. whatever you have it mounted to should have an umbrella hole.

There is a plexiglass type bottom panel to help diffuse the light. It is cloudy/ opaque so you can't see the actual bulbs.

I use it, but setup a little different. I don't use my triple speedlight adapter to mount to the stand. What I do is put the triple mount on the shaft, then I slide the diffuser opening over the shaft, then I use a standard umbrella mount to attach it to the stand. This gives more flexibility for tilting the umbrella, etc. I definitely like how it works.

With a dual speed light setup you may be able to fill the umbrella's size, a single would have to be close to the subject and higher iso to use without strobes.

These are just umbrellas with stands or tripods. Think of it as a tripod for umbrellas and your strobes / flash. As E Nash said, your better off with wireless strobes. You mount your flash to it and depending on the lighting you want, you can shoot through the umbrellas ( like a huge diffuser) or bounce light off the inside of the umbrella. Cheapest most reliable method ( if you own cheap strobes like I do ) get wireless triggers for your strobes.

There is no reason why you couldn't. The directional lights will make it easy for you to illuminate exactly what you want. You can even do the simple Velcro installation in lieu of screwing it in, since you don't have gravity working against you.

Hi Saied, Yes. It shows the mounting hole (with the metal tab and knob) in the photo, and it mentions "Adjust the umbrella and flash in different angle" Happy shooting! Betty

There's a sort of ring hanging from the ceiling. You can hang any kind of light either with its own hook or with a carribeaner clip.

There's no easy way to attach any modifiers to the light. Sometimes I bounce it off white boards to increase diffusion but normally that is not needed since the surface area of the board is much bigger than a standard light.

For the money, this is a good setup for YouTube videos. If the video only has one subject, putting two lights in each umbrella and getting them really close is plenty of light. It works like a beauty ring at that point. Good luck!

Push the center ring in until it reaches the socket and snaps into place. The umbrella will open and you can then screw the bulb in. You have to push kind of hard.

According to the directions a light kit can be purchased. We didn't want one so I didn't investigate further. Also it can be flush mounted. That is how mine is installed.

You can use a stronger bulb. As long as it is fluorescent, you should not worry about burning the umbrellas. Just don't use regular incandescent bulbs.

I don't think the light is bright enough to do that. Need to use it for things up close.

The light comes with a bracket which can be tilted up or down. The light pattern is wide, so if you mount this light high, you will illuminate a large area. You will need to build your own mount for this light as it is heavy and DOES NOT come with a mounting bracket. I built my own quite easily and for the price was well worth the minor effort.
