great kit, would rent again!thank you!

FANTASTIC key light [1.6K Light Cannon (with included octobank softbox using two step diffusion)] good 2nd and 3rd smaller lights... You can use the key/cannon light by itself = for an interview against a seamless backdrop because it's so powerful/soft that there are barely any shadows on the background.

Really knows how to make documentaries look great. Very good about showing what his gear is best for.

Exactly what we needed. Thank you!

Joe made renting a breeze, his gear is top notch, his customer service is great, informative and fast. Highly recommended!
