light kits

[pbreilly]

Do I really have to spend upwards of $500 on ebay (even more for new) to get a simple light kit to aid in shooting? I figured there would be dozens of old lowel tota kits out there....does anyone know where I can procure this stuff (or an alternative) for less cash?

I like the Lowell Tota myself. I know you can get them new for about 150USD from B&H in NYC. I would just do that. Then you don't have to deal with the hassle of getting trash off eBay. I have three Totas, and two Omnis they work well. I can't do all the lighting I want but I mostly use them to accent the natural light that is there. Good Luck
