Q: 4. What hard-case is sold with this kit? Can it be purchased separately?

A: The case is made by SKB Cases, they are similar to Pelican brand. You can also purchase the lights without a case. The lights come in a foam cutout.

Q: 5. Would this kit be suitable for macro flash photography?

A: The LumiQuest Mini Lighting Kit (B&H # LUMK) is designed to diffuse the spread of light from both a hot shoe flash and a DSLR's cameras built-in flash. The issue with macro photography is the minimum focus distance required for macro photography usage needs, as well as the physical length of the lens, as a long lens can block light emitted from a built-in flash or a camera-mounted flash. As we cannot estimate the spread of light from the LumiQuest Mini Lighting Kit, while the kit may be helpful, we cannot guarantee it would be a perfect solution for macro photography usage needs. However, it would be a good option for portraiture, standard photography or (some) wide angle photography usage needs.

Q: 6. What is the tungsten equivalent output? Is it powerful enough as a key light for stills photography?

A: The actual measured tungsten equivalent is about the same as 400W fresnel light. To put this into perspective it means when compared to common 300W fixtures the Practilite602 is little bit more powerful. For example common tungsten fresnel @ 300W outputs 2500lx in flood and 6500lx in spot whereas Practilite602 outputs 3100lx and 10000lx, not to mention it outputs about 15000lx in Boost Mode @ 4500K.If it is enough as a key light it depends on the subject matter, the scene and of course on the sensitivity you are willing to use: the smaller the scene the more light will you have, as for normal portraiture it will do fine but remember if you add a softbox/chimera you will lose half the light output which can be compensated by moving the light closer to the subject, if possible. As this light is focusable you are able to direct and shape the light without any additional modifiers.
