Hi Sandi
I have not used these units because from what I can see you are spending between 90 and 200 dollars for a briefcase with a piece of reflective cloth in it. Thats it. No lights, Nothing. I do use the sharpics tabletop monopod and I love it but these briefcase things to me are a waste. If you have read the CloudDome vs Light tent thread you will see a lot of info about how to make a good cheap light tent and how to get good cheap lighting. If you do want to spend a bit more money then go with the Tabletop Studio Bead kit (http://store.tabletopstudio-store.com/bephkit.html) for 275 dollars. Its got 2 different light tents as well as lights, backdrops, risers and some other items. Hope this helps

Thank you...I actually have a light tent but have not been pleased with my pictures...I am beginning to think maybe it is my camera....I don't know....the pictures are not as clear and sharp as I think they should be....sometimes the pictures are great....sometimes not so great...I also wonder if the color has something to do with it. I have the 5000K lightbulbs that Tabletop sells also.
Thank you. Sandi
