Comments about Westcott Fluorescent Lamp - 50 Watts/120 Volts 5500K:
The Spiderlte system is great in the studio, especially if you are a fan of continuous lighting over strobe. Just be sure you anchor your light stand well. Tipping it over and breaking all the lights is not an inexpensive event.

Purchased to have backups for my Wescott Spiderlite 5. Like all of your photography equipment you should have backups for all of your equipment. I am a location portrait photographer and have a kit with a couple of the laps as backups.

Product used to light background for indoor photography.
