Product Information

The Bowens Esprit DX 500 2 Monolight Kit has ample strobe power for many studio or location lighting situations. Each 500 watt/second monolight has a dial-down power range of six f/stops -- down to 1/32 of full power. The power levels are easily visible in digital readouts, and adjustable in 1/10th stop increments.

A 250 watt modeling light makes composing and focusing easy.

This 2 light kit provides a total of 1000 watt/seconds -- ample power for shooting groups of people (5 - 6), or smaller subjects, using a very small f/stop. It includes 1 silver-white umbrella, 1 24x24" softbox, 2- 7' light stands, an infra-red wireless trigger, monoplug to PC sync cord, and a soft kit bag.
