[1.285 lb] it is my main light modifier shooting architectural interiors. 5

[1.285 lb] I got this to use for my architecture photography. It fills the room with soft even light. There are no harsh shadows created whatsoever. I'm using them with my 500w Lowel Omni kit and it has proved to be an invaluable tool in my Arsenal. 5

[1.285 lb] Great piece of gear. Can be used as fill, overhead, catch light, etc... Build quality is great, quick setup, works on many fixtures. And it's a Chimera! 5

[1.285 lb] I took a lighting class last Spring, where cinematographer taught us to light various types of scenes. He turned us on to the usefulness of China Ball type lights, for interior scenes where you are trying to create a warm, flattering sort of look. I bought a couple of the Chimera Lanterns and have been very pleased with them. Put a dimmer on them, and they have become my go to lights for these types of scenes. Not only do they give you a bright and very diffuse light, but there is something about the spherical shape that is also very pleasing. They can mimic a motivated ceiling light for example. They are not necessarily intuitive to assemble, but once you get used to it, they are not too bad. I'm very very pleased with the Cimera Lanterns. 5

[1.285 lb] I use an adapter to plug in 2 large 75w fluorescent bulbs. Nice soft light. Great for tabletop shoots. The stand is very sturdy and so is the boom arm. Very happy with the purchase. 5
