It's the H50088 Kit (http://www.opusprophoto.com/products/lighting_kits/h_series_kits.html#h50088) - Not pro studio gear, BUT a good way better than the couple of hundred dollar a set kits on eBay. All I've had time to do is take them out of the bag, turn them on, and make sure everything is there... it's proably going to be a couple of weeks before I can even get them properly set up.

I've seen 'pros' use a lot worse stuff than that. I think you picked a good item and will enjoy it for a long time. Now you get to learn all about lighting.

Thanks; going to be quite the learning curve, but it should be fun.

Digital has made learning lighting a lot easier, no waiting to see what you got or expensive Polaroid backs.

Isn't that the truth, but I tell you, I do miss those metal cans that 100' rolls of FP4 and Pan F used to come in. They were useful.
