5.0 out of 5 stars Great value for money
Good softbox, extremely simple and easy to setup and dismantle. My previous Bowens softbox was a pain, and I needed new rods after several uses. This seems really sturdy for the moment, will see how it holds up, but for now I’m very impressed.
5.0 out of 5 stars Best portable light modifier for creatives on the go
I have many modifiers as a creative who uses flash for photography and LED for video work.Recently brought this for it’s quick folding design as I’m always on the with varying assignments. Build quality is fantastic, locks and folds down without fuss.I love it so much for its speed and versatility. In fact I’ve even purchase a profoto ring to use with the flash system as profoto RF octa are too fiddly to erect and collapse on location jobs.Highly recommended, top grade construction and reasonable pricing
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Softbox
I used this softbox on a wedding shoot a few days after I received it and I am absolutely delighted with the results. I used it outdoors to balance flash with daylight on the wedding party and for some bridal shots.The softbox gave an even light, free from hotspots with nice fall off.Its very easy to assemble, sturdy and well made. Then storage bag provides ample room for the softbox and a Godox S2 Bracket that i use to hold my speedlight.One slight issue, the Bowens bracket rattled slightly despite being properly inserted and the mounting screws tightened. It was a little annoying rattling in the back seat of the car. I sorted it with a ring of 1mm cardboard between the softbox body and the mount. When the Bowen mount is tightened now, no rattles.Bottom line, i wish i knew about this softbox before i wasted a lot of money on inferior ones. i certainly know that i will buy another when its needed.This is another top quality SmallRig product that i cannot recommend highly enough.
5.0 out of 5 stars Big, a bit weighty but highly convenient and lovely light
The advantage of a softbox is that they create more flattering light for portraits/videography. The bigger the softbox's size (and the closer it is to the subject), the more diffuse the light.There's a lot of debate online whether parabolic softboxes have an advantage over thinner flatter ones (and evidence to suggest they don't when the diffusers are being used). But the advantages of this model are that it's incredibly quick to erect/dissassemble thanks to the external click-in-place struts, the two layers of diffuser ensure soft light (plus a grid to control it if desired), and if you use solely the reflector part you get a very different look and get the advantage of the parabolic shape.SmallRig provides a great carrying case and the built-in Bowens connector means you don't need to buy a separate speedring, which saves on cost.Bear in mind it is a bit weighty - my normal lighting stand needed sandbags and flexed under its weight, so you may need to consider SmallRig's light stand as an add-on. Also bear in mind the depth of the parabolic shape means it takes up more space.
4.0 out of 5 stars Great, ginormous tho
I bought the 47 inch model and its a really great piece of kit, however it's monumentally massive and takes up half the room.. no fault of the equipment but I am selling mine because it's just too big for my space.
5.0 out of 5 stars Soft box
Excellent product
5.0 out of 5 stars Great soft light source
Easy and quick soft box to rig and derig. Works very well with a cob light , comes in a handy bag.
5.0 out of 5 stars SmallRig does it again.
Like all SmallRig products, this thing screams quality build and fit and finish.This could easily be twice the money, the softbox goes together in seconds using the quick deploy latches and stays as solid as any of the Aputure ones I've used before.It comes with 2 diffusion layers and an easy to use grid as well (really handy and stores away very small). All layers use velcro to attach and are very easy to mount.The hardware on the Bowens compatible mount is all metal and a joy to use. This being the 55cm one it is best suited for smaller items, I shoot watches and this is absolute perfect for that as I can throw it around in the studio and it isn't huge or hitting me on the head all the time like my bigger ones do.Absolutely great stuff from SmallRig.
Producto practico y de muy buena calidad , gracias por el servicio

Wonderful diffuser! High quality, as expected. Easy to assemble. Good carrying bag. Good mount. There is no reason not to buy this when it is on sale!
Huge softbox ideal for various scenarios
I have also small one version 55cm. This biggie has same construction. You'll need more force to push the locks. Decent pouch and not so decent honeycomb in packaging.

Der beste Lichtformer, den ich bisher in Händen hielt. Extrem einfacher Auf- und Abbau, kleines Packmaß, super Qualität.
Top Qualität
Die Softbox ist hochwertig verarbeitet und der Aufbau problemlos. Allerdings sind, wie bei fast allen Softboxen, die Diffusoren zu dick. Das führt zu einem massiven Leistungsverlust von bis zu drei Blendenstufen. Da werden dann aus 250Ws schnell mal 30Ws. 😉 Auf die Dauer hilft nur Power, ist kein Lösungsansatz. Ein Leichgewicht ist sie ebenfalls nicht, aber es hält sich im Rahmen einer soliden Qualität.
