80 bucks is awful steep for a light box that you can build yourself. The ad doesn’t say much about construction, or the type/wattage of the lights. Pretty cheesey stands, too.

Google “build a tabletop photo lightbox” and see what’s out there.

If you look closely you’ll realize that a trip to Joanne fabrics and Home depot can accomplish the same thing. It just depends how handy you are. For $79 I’d rather experiment. I’ll learn about lighting and save some bucks. Unless you are a commercial enterprise where I could write this off I’d pass. Goodwill has Hi-intensity lights for $5 bucks apiece. But Im one cheap kinda guy. Ebay auctions don’t require alot, which this is aimed at.

I THINK THIS MIGHT BE A PRETTY GOOD DEAL ESPECIALLY SINCE I ALREADY OWN THE CASIO CAMERA SHOWN. THE CAMERA IS A LITTLE HIGH AND CAN BE BOUGHT AT WAL-MART MUCH CHEAPER. THIS IS THE BEST DIGITAL CAMERA I’VE OWNED GOOD LUCK! & MERRY CHRISTMAS

I don’t think I’d spend more than 50 on it, and don’t expect much.
