I am selling a medium-size speedotron kit I put together a few years ago for product photography and tabletop work. This is a very complete kit, and easily enough to outfit a small studio or do commercial jobs on a location with house power.
Everything works as it should, and it's a fairly complete package. The only thing you might want to add is a beauty dish if you're doing portraiture, and of course you'll need a few extra light stands.
Really looking to sell as a package, but open to offers on individual items. If you price this out it is a VERY economical offer.
There are higher end, newer options but Speedotron is a professional-grade and very reliable kit. I worked with it (both my kit and gear owned by the studio/ad agency) for about 3 years almost every day in Toronto, we would only break out the Profoto stuff for location work or fashion.
All of this has been stored indoors, with climate control for a few months.Everything worked well when stored and powers up/fires/recycles properly when tested before listing.
All heads have UV coated glass and most of the modeling lights have been recently replaced.
Packs are both newer models with the standard 6.35mm/1/4" synch plugs, not the older two-prong style.
The zoom spot and Manfrotto wind-up stand are not included but I will give a good discount if they are bought with the package.
My main priority is to sell this as a package deal and to avoid having to ship, as shipping will likely be cost-prohibitive. I am willing to ship but we would need to get a quote and agree on it before the sale.
Interac, paypal, or cash are accepted.
Please let me know if you would like to check my ebay feedback and I can provide account info. I would also be happy to draw up an invoice under my business name (which would add 5% sales tax) or provide an itemized bill of sale.
Many more photos available! They wouldn't all fit on this post.
See below for list -
Packs
Speedotron 805
W/ power cord, in good shape.
Speedotron 1205cx
Handle is slightly dented in, works perfectly fine, no other dents or damage. W/ power cord.
Includes fitted road case.
Heads
Speedotron 202vf x 4
In good shape, with tube covers, some marks from old labels but otherwise clean.
New modelling lights recently installed in 3/4.
All flash tubes are working, 1 recently replaced.
Packed in two soft cases with the 805 pack and cables.
Cables
Head-to-pack connectors for 202 heads x4
Head cable extensions x2
Modifiers
7" reflectors x5
One is pretty severely dented, 4 are in good shape.
11.5" reflector x1
With 10 and 20 degree grids in good shape.
Westcott Umbrellas 2x
32", convertible bounce or shoot through. Will slot in to brackets on heads/reflectors, so they're very easy to use
Chimera Super Pro Plus Medium Softbox
36x48" softbox for strobes, includes a speedring for Speedo heads. Recently replaced the interior diffusion baffle, as the old one had gotten dirty on a location job. Very clean except for a bit of paint from a wet set wall on one corner. No rips or tears, and the reflective material inside is in very good, clean shape.
Zoom Spot
I have this listed separately elsewhere, as it is sort of a specialty item, but I would be willing to include it with the kit for 200$. These lights, often known in film or theater as Leko lights or ellipsoidal spots, are GREAT for having a hard, punchy, and easily controllable light source. I used it mainly to imitated sunlight from a window when shooting interior sets. Includes the gel holder, but unfortunately I cannot find the gobo holder or gobo kit. These are both easily replaced and not brand-specific.
Also unlike other lekos, this one is zoomable, meaning that it can provide a variety of different angles of coverage without having to change the barrel as you would with a Source Four or Joe Leko.
Speedo, Profoto, and Elinchrom all make or have made some variation of this, and they're usually quite expensive.
A 102 head and a tube cover for the head are included. It would be possible to remove the speedotron head and fit something else to the speedring on the light, but you would need the new speedring and a non-zoomable head may give slightly different angles of coverage to the original, ie, now you have a 15-35 degree light instead of a 10-30 degree.
Triggers
PocketWizard IIIE x2
One is a IIIE, one is a III updated to IIIE hardware. Both work fine on camera or on the pack, and I have an optical trigger fitted to the second pack.
Stands
Manfrotto 004 stands x2
Good shape, in carry case, photos to come
Manfrotto 087NW x1
Heavy duty wind-up stand, great for booms or large lighting fixtures. As-new condition, will include for an extra 250$ or sell separately for 500$. Photos to come.
C-stand arms
3x 40" c-stand arms with gobo heads. 2 black Manfrotto one chrome Matthews.
Good condition and very useful, but I would personally NOT suggest using them on lightweight aluminum stands, they will bend them. They are meant for use on steel folding stands or c-stands.
