Light-Efficient Diffusion Material - PixaPro 100cm Speedlight Octagon Softbox
The PixaPro 100cm Quick-Open Octagon FlatPak Softbox for Speedlight is the first of a new generation of easy-open softbox design. No longer do you need to wrestle with rods, backing fabric, and a speedring, nor do you need to reach into your softbox to push the opening mechanism down top to open it. The Pixapro FlatPak Softboxes feature a new patented hinged opening mechanism, that can be accessed from the back of the softbox. This means you no longer have to partially remove the diffuser to access the locking mechanism, making it ultra-fast and efficient. Compared to standard softboxes, the FlatPak Softbox takes up half of the space in your bag while still setting up quickly. With portability, weight and speed in mind, it is perfect for the run-and-gun photographer who needs to set up and pack away as quickly as possible. The perfect tool for photographers who work on location such as Wedding, and Portrait photographers. It is also great for Videographers who shoot either in the studio or on location.
The PixaPro 100cm octagon flatpak softbox has been built with speed and efficiency in mind. It features a revolutionary patented hinged opening mechanism, where the softbox can be unfolded, and the locking mechanism simply clicks into place. Once you have finished using your softbox, the locking mechanism is released with a simple flick of a switch. Since the opening mechanism is located on the outside of the softbox, there is no need to remove the inner and outer diffuser to reach inside the flatpak softbox to release it saving you precious time. Even more, it comes with a smaller package than traditional softboxes as the speedring mount can be folded in half.
The 100cm speedlight octagon softbox features a highly reflective Profi-line lining, designed to maximise light output from your light source. It also produces a softer, more homogenous light. Since the opening mechanism is located on the outside, there is nothing inside obstructing the light, giving back that extra bit of light. Especially useful for more unidirectional light sources such as COB LED lights and Speedlite.
Since the opening mechanism is on the outside of the flatpak softbox, there is nothing on the inside of the softbox obstructing the light from your LED light or Strobe. This makes it especially good for lights that are quite directional by nature, such as Speedlites, or COB LED Studio lights.
The PixaPro flatpak softbox is made from high-quality heard-wearing fabric. It also features eight durable rods that have been stitched into the lining, so you don’t have to worry about the rounds coming out during use.
Included two layers of diffusion to help soften the light, giving you more control over your light and helping to further reduce harsh shadows, providing a more even, soft light. However, you can remove the inner diffuser to squeeze out an extra stop. And a honeycomb grid, that attaches effortlessly to the front of the softbox, giving a narrower spread of light by restricting the beam without spilling onto the background.
The speedlight octagon softbox gives you a broad catching light, so images can appear more natural. For fashion photography, the octagon softboxes reduce light spills while giving you round catchlights in the eyes of your portraits. Compared to the rectangular softbox, the octagon softbox controls the shape and direction of the light to a greater degree. The 100cm flatpak octagon softbox is suitable for still life, and portrait. commercial, fashion, food, product and events photography.
The PixaPro flatpak octagon softbox also ships with a slim-profiled carry case with a zipped opening at one end, making it great for portability and storage.
The PixaPro speedlight octagon softbox is the perfect solution for photographers and videographers who require soft even lighting without losing precious time setting it up. Ideal for any situation whether you are shooting still life, portrait, commercial, fashion, food, product, wedding, or events photography. Also great for the travelling mobile on-location photographer.
