Hi, Im new to the forum, Im not a film maker but i would like to get into it now I've got a new camera and lens, I currently record guitar videos for Youtube/Instagram, i recently upgraded my camera to the GH7 and i wanted to up my lighting game too, at the moment im using a tiny homemade softbox that doesn't really do the job (Literally has tissue paper for diffusion).
Im considering the "Neewer Bicolor 45W LED Softbox kit" which is only £65 on amazon (UK), however it comes with two soft boxes sets and i only need one, for the same money, could i buy the parts for a soft box individually and ender up with a better one, with a grid on the front? I would need it to be dimmable and preferably LED so it doesn't get too hot as i sit by it for a long time filming myself playing. If so, could you provide links to the parts?
Im looking on Amazon myself but with my level of experience im not sure about all the different mounting options etc. I'd prefer not to buy the kit of two soft boxes because i really only need/want one and it seems to me i could make one out of more durable parts than purchasing two for the same price.
I can't post links because im new here but its just called Neewer Bicolor 45W LED Softbox kit (£63.99) on Amazon.
Thank you and sorry if this is posted in the wrong category!
