This entry-level student kit brings together two compact Godox V480 TTL speedlites with a practical range of modifiers, stands, and control accessories. Designed to help you understand and shape light from day one, it offers a flexible foundation for portraits, small product work, and creative assignments.
With multiple softboxes and umbrellas included, you can experiment with different lighting styles without needing additional equipment. The lightweight stands and roller case make it easy to transport between home, studio, and location shoots.
Students, beginners, and content creators who want a complete, hands-on lighting kit to learn flash techniques and build confidence with off-camera lighting.
The two Godox V480 speedlites act as your primary light sources. Use one as a key light and the other as fill, rim, or background light to build depth in your images.
The included 70cm softbox provides a broad, soft light ideal for portraits. Smaller modifiers—such as the 20cm octagonal and 17x15cm rectangular softboxes—allow for more controlled, directional lighting, useful for product work or accent lighting.
The 40" translucent/white Umbrella can be used to bounce or diffuse light, helping soften shadows or fill in contrast. The 40" black/silver umbrella offers a punchier, more reflective light for when you need extra output or coverage.
Tiltable swivel brackets connect the speedlites to the light stands and allow you to angle your light precisely. The wireless trigger enables off-camera firing, giving you full creative control without cables.
This kit is built to teach lighting fundamentals through real-world use. Instead of a single modifier, you get a range of tools to understand how light behaves—soft vs hard, broad vs focused, direct vs reflected.
It’s also highly portable. Battery-powered speedlites and lightweight stands mean you can shoot anywhere without relying on mains power, making it ideal for students working across different locations.
