Q&A’s
- There are many different flashes on the market as well as many different fittings. As far as we know, the following brands are compatible with the following fittings: Bowens S-Type Fitting: Bowens, Lencarta, Interfit (Stellar/Pro/Venus), Lastolite, Aurora, PhotaREX, FotoQuantum, Visico, Fancier, Walimex (VC / K + DS) and Rime lite. Elinchrom E-Type Fitting: Elinchrom, Current Calumet Genesis heads and Interfit EX series heads. If the brand of your lights isn’t listed, please check with the manufacturer of your flashes.
- At the moment we only stock Bowens S-Type, Elinchrom E-Type and Mini universal fitting accessories, but we may start to stock modifiers compatible with other brands in the future.
- We would not recommend using these softboxes with hot lights as they are not designed to withstand the high temperatures that hot lights produce. Since these softboxes aren’t designed to be used with hot lights they could be a fire hazard. The modelling lights used in studio flashes relatively low powered compared to hot lights, and do not produce anywhere near the same amount of heat.
- The Honeycomb grids (sometimes referred to as Egg Crates) are used to control the spread of light. The smaller the grid, the more concentrated the beam will be. These are ideal if you don’t want the light to spill onto certain parts of your set such as the background.
- Our umbrellas have an 8mm shaft, so it won't go through the Centre of the light like the 7mm shaft umbrellas would.
However some Elinchrom heads have a slot underneath the angle adjustment lever (as shown in the photo below).
If your Elinchrom light has this, then you should be able to use this umbrella with no problem.
