Test: Einzeltest: Elinchrom D-Lite 4 kit review
Zitat: Having used Elinchrom in the past and always recommended them as high quality lighting I was a little disappointed on first impression at the plastic feel and budget looks. Here are units that look and feel lower in quality than Elinchrom´s budget Prolinca range, so why have the Elinchrom badge? These feelings all changed when the kit was set up and I started to use it. The flash output, is a fabulous neutral light, it´s even and it´s consistent. The combined weight of a stand, head and softbox is light, so really manageable when maneuvering to take shots and the recycle time kept up with typical studio model shoots. This is a perfect introduction to studio photography for those who have more space and demand the 400Ws power. Although for the photographer who´s after something for use in the spare room you could save some cash buying the D-lite 200 kit which will deliver similar quality, at a lower price but also lower flash output. Plus points Lightweight Budget price Quality neutral light output Confidence in safety aspects Easy to use Portable Negative points Build quality flimsy in parts Locking nut lacks space Lightboxes only really suitable for portraiture No fan cooling Non-standard 7mm brolly hole
