What do you Canon owners think of this Studio Kit?

Well, it doesn't totally pertain to the S3 camera but there seems to be quite a bit more action in this section and since I do own a S3 camera I will post it here.

What do you guys think about this, is it worth the money?

For the lights alone they want 26 bucks each you get 2 and the rest of the kit for 77 bucks. Could be a good start to play around with :cool:

that's a nice set up for any camera. Specially if you like to take product shots:)

Yes that is what I was thinking, may not be the most practical thing but could be a neat toy to play with.

Exactly! If Money's burning a hole in your pocket, I'd say go for it :)

For me (being very thrifty), I'd rather make a DIY lightbox for product shots than buy one which costs $70+. But if portability is of utmost importance to you, I think $70+ is worth it...

i have one concern though, the site says that the color temperature of the lights are at 2800K... shouldn't they be in the 3,500K range to be "color balanced"? I could be wrong though. I think 2800K tungstens are regular light bulbs.
