Hard Cardboard Box Prices

This light is fantastic. So powerful, so capable, so versatile. I got hooked into the Aputure ecosystem last year when I bought two MCs (miniature versions of the P300c) for some background pop on my livestream. I quickly (and luckily) bought five more before the market on them exploded. What drew me so hard into these lights, aside from the brightness and the colors, was the Sidus Link app. It makes managing all the lights quite simple. Didn't mean to go on so long about not-the-P300c, but all of that applies to it as well. I'm no gaffer so I encourage you to watch some professional reviews on it's technical capabilities and value compared to similar lights. What I can say as a novice is that the P300c blew me away (and nearly blinded me). The build quality is amazing. What you get in the box is excellent. My only complaint is that the standby LED in side the back of the light is slightly noticeable if you keep it plugged in but turned off in a dark room. If you need a super bright RGBWW LED panel and can afford the 1700$ (which pro reviewers say is a total bargain) then you can't go wrong with the P300c. I would suggest splurging for the version with the included hard case if you ever expect to move this light between locations. The version without the hardcase just comes in a cardboard box with foam. Quality foam, but if I had to tote this across town in the back of a van I'd want more than cardboard.

Perfect for carrying the beauty dish - much better than using the cardboard box. :)

With so many mic stands out there, and such a wide range of prices, it was hard to choose. This stand costs a bit more than the rock-bottom models, but as soon as I opened the box, I could see it was worth it. There is nothing fancy about this stand, but it is sturdy and well-made. The base where the legs attach and the boom attachment are both cast steel. The whole stand has a thick smooth powder-coat of black paint. A cast imprint on the boom mount, as well as labeling on the box, says Made in Germany. The mounting threads are clean and sharp. To summarize, a good, strong, well-made basic mic stand at a very sensible price. When I need more stands, I'll get this one again.

I really appreciate that they pack the photo paper with reinforced cardboard to protect the boxes of photo paper from getting damaged in any way.The prices are the best on this product.

Nice case to replace your cardboard box! For the price it's great

We were able to get about 1,380 slides in ours - standard cardboard mounts. Good sturdy box.

Heavy duty and affordable. Does exactly what it should. I miss the hard cardboard shipping tubes these used to come in, but I can forgive it for the value.

Fine film---as always. Arrived in a battered cardboard box half broken open---probably the shipper's fault.

Got this for my Benq W1100 projector. Cardboard box was wearing out, and needed something stronger.

Awesome lens for scenery, landscapes, cramped interiors ... really opens things up! Packaging was excellent, lens was inside a sturdy metal box with heavy duty foam inserts, inside a durable cardboard box, inside a padded cardboard box from B&H. This lens seems very well built, gives sharp images, and has features I wish other lens makers would use in their lenses; the hyper-focal distance scale, click stop infinity detent, and raised 'lever' on focusing ring to name a few. I would definitely recommend this lens as an inexpensive, lightweight, super-ultra-wide-angle lens !!!
