I think it has to be worked out by the lumens value of the light source and not the wattage as the wattage value is power used not brightness and this varies with type of light think energy saver bulbs all the best.
Best wattage for softbox lighting.
It s high energy efficiny and reaches wattage up to 2500.
These kits generally include three softboxes.
Starting to get the picture.
Soft lighting umbrella kit day light color 700 watt output.
I would like to buy a kit of continous light with cfl compact fluorescent light bulb for 1 video.

It s all in the modifier.
Soft light less shadows flattering portraits.
There are kit of 2000 3000 4500 e 6000 watts.
The first is 1600 watts using florescent bulbs.
Review of the best continuous lights.
Obviously i would like to keep iso at 200.
Every modifier light position tilt turn or ambient light makes all the difference.
That s a full 2 stops less with the strobe at exactly the same power.
As to whether you can conveniently get shots with 800 watts in a softbox.
The purpose of lighting with softboxes is to soften the quality of light produced by the external flash.
3 pcs 45w cfl bulb 3 pcs bulb socket 2 pcs 33 inch.
Found the following 2 setups.
The softbox has 110 inch umbrella built into it with 5070 nylon.
The other strobe you put on a softbox and it measures f11.
