Westcott U60-B Bi-Colour LED 3-LIGHT Softbox Kit

Westcott U60-B Bi-Colour LED 3-LIGHT Softbox Kit | Build a three-light studio setup

When one light leaves a portrait looking flat, a three-light setup gives you more ways to shape the scene. The Westcott U60-B Bi-Colour LED 3-LIGHT Softbox Kit is a studio lighting kit for photographers and image-makers who want to work with three lights and softbox lighting. Its bi-colour LED description points to a practical benefit: you can choose a warmer or cooler look to suit the scene. That flexibility can help when you’re matching the feel of a room or deciding how neutral the light should appear. The kit is best suited to planned studio work, such as portraits or product photographs, where you have time to position lights and refine the look. It’s a considered setup rather than a single-light option; the three-light format gives you room to work with a main light and supporting light sources.

Working with three lights

With three lights available, start by deciding what needs the most attention in the frame. Use one position for the main illumination, then consider where extra light would help reveal detail or create separation from the background. The softbox approach is useful when you want a less hard-edged look than a bare light can give; the result still depends on placement and the subject. Bi-colour lighting also gives you a choice about the light’s overall colour character, so think about how it should sit alongside other light in the scene. Take a test frame after moving each light. Small changes in angle and distance can alter the balance, so there’s no need to set all three positions at once.
