You had to invest even more than you paid for the over-priced lights just to be able to shape the light! The AEOS are sold on the false premise that you don’t need soft boxes etc. Unless you are doing gel work for the majority of your shoots, you’d be better equipped and financially better off with some Godox strobes or even their LED range. Too many shills promote the lights. No one makes any content using them to any extent which suggests that only sponsored or the gullible buy the lights!
