Construction quality is the first thing that jumped out at me as I unboxed the new Solix light from Westcott. It’s lightweight but incredibly well built. For me, equipment has to be durable. I travel a lot and am rough on my gear. It has to hold up. 

Westcott has done an amazing job designing this light. Continuous light is another option in my toolbox. It’s about having the right tool for the job. Here, the tool is incredibly well thought out. A magnetic mounting system makes it quick and easy to add and remove accessories like the included barn doors and diffusion cap. Best of all, it’s got a built-in speedring for attaching softboxes. Brilliant!
