Can this be used as continous lighting?

Absolutely. That's why I got it and it works great. And a nice, short depth for its size.

The Apollo is designed to have the flash head pointing to the back of the reflective backing and bounced out. I think you would lose too much light using this in that fashion. I don't think it would be deep enough to get a good spread with the light facing forward. So I would not recommend this soft box for that use.

I'm not electrician, but I don't see why not? I used it as lighting to frame my balcony at a condo. (outdoor)

It can but you won't be happy. It is designed like a spotlight so very little is transmitted sideways. I had it in a fixture and only a small amount of light reflected out so it was more of a glow than a real light.

I see no reason that it would not work. It can be easily adjusted to put light where you need it. You may use up a lot of batteries if you use this area frequently.

yes it can! I shot a few videos of my huband and it provided great lighting!

In my case, we needed temporary light at a lectern without electrical access. It worked fine for us for that purpose. Perhaps others interested in art illumination are more concerned with price than "true light."

Yes, it can be, and it depends on how you use it. I use it as the only light source to take pictures with my smartphone at night. Just be creative.

Yes you can. However I agree with Ray's answer - you would need to place them every 15-20 feet if you are going for a complete illumination. On my deck I have 2 mounted 7ft high 20ft apart pointing up so the light bounced on the second floor eves. The light illuminates the 75 X 15 ft. area nicely with a soft glow.

I personally wouldn't recommend it since it is not made to be a ceiling light, it is a plug in lamp.

You can use this as strobe to illuminate your photos. You can to buy this for photos that need more light. Studio or outside are examples. Hope I helped.

You must use a generator to have a continuous power for continuous lighting

Yes you can. I t obviously reduces the run time of the light but it work fine. JB

Yes, you can do that. But I will prefer to buy a led light for out door use. The bright is soft and more wide Rangel.

Barbara, Sorry, no it is only for uplighting! Lots of light with this one, up to 500 watts! Hope this helps.

Yes you can. All three lights you get in the kit can be used for continuous lighting. They are not super bright, and if you are shooting anything that is moving you will have to use the strobe option.

I'm using it as recessed lighting behind cove molding in my ceiling, so don't know why you couldn't!

I don't believe so. However the lighting is not too bright and even when activated by motion, it doesn't stay on but a few minutes.
