Lumapanels vs. Kino Flos: What's the Difference?

[chris schaller]

Just wondering if anyone has any experience with Lumapanels? Why are they different or better than standard Kino Flos?

Beside the fact that they are about 20 some bucks for one

Lamp 75W/3200K - 4' Safety Coated

Flicker free with virtually no noise pollution and they start in a snap...?

I wouldn't know... but what troubles me is that with all the hits you got on this topic... I was the only amateur with a bottom shelf answer.

Kino-flos that is...
Lumapanels seem more complicated to install for the amount of
difference it will make in a close scene.

I just used several Lumapanels on a commercial the other day

They have a TON more output than something like a Kino wall o' light or Image 80.
