The Impact Soft n' Natural Kit #4 by B&H is a 3-light, comprehensive kit, created to be a lighting solution for virtually any kind of imaging-making be it e-commerce, portraiture, fashion, product or large groups. The kit contains two 24" Octa softboxes with 4-socket fixtures and 8' air-cushioned light stands and a 20 x 27.5" rectangular softbox with a 4-socket fixture and a 6' light stand. Twelve 26W spiral fluorescent lamps with a daylight color balance of 5000K are included for the fixtures.
The Impact Octa fixtures in this kit feature sturdy construction with 5/8" stand mounts, ceramic Edison sockets and multi-voltage capability. The fixtures also have rocker-switch lamp control and come with Octa softboxes with removable inner baffles and front diffusers. The light shapers display a distinct wrap-around light quality and reflect natural catchlights in your subject's eyes. They are supported by 8' air-cushioned stands that let your lights down slowly when making height adjustments to avoid damage.
Built similarly to the Octa fixtures, the included 4-lamp fixture and rectangular 20 x 27.5" softbox are ideal for head and shoulders or product photography, especially with reflective objects.
