Quotes Photography Light
What are these photography spotlights worth?
I might buy the lights mentioned in this ad:

There is a pic of them here:

As it says in the description, “2 lights, also come with a separate clamp, not shown, so that you can clamp the lamp on whatever and not use the stand.”
My question is this:
How much is it worth? The quote says $100 or best offer, and I wonder if $100 is worth it for that product.
I rekon these are tungsten lamps on stands originally made for duplicating and still-life photography, they give u yellowish cast if you’re using daylight balanced film (standard). You can use tungsten balanced film for accurate colors or black n white. A 100 dollars is a bit much i guess. I would buy them for 65 dollars the pair and at least use them as a decorative studio style lamps to lit my records collection or a corner. Those produce slow shutterspeed light output at 1 meter away from the subject, so u might wanna use a tripod for un-blurry shots because ur camera might ask for 1/15th shutterspeeds and slower.
