Customise Your Light: Featuring an internal and external diffuser, you can use both diffusers for soft, even lighting, or one diffuser for soft lighting with added contrast and specularity. You can also add a honeycomb grid (available separately) for even more control over the spread of light.
Lightweight Beauty Dish: With the addition of the optional deflector plate (Available Separately), and its silver interior, the Godox S85T umbrella softbox can also be used as a lightweight collapsible beauty dish.
Quick-Release Mechanism: Makes setting up and breaking down the softbox a hassle-free experience. It also features a zipper near the mounting ring, enabling you to collapse the softbox down, without needing to remove the front diffusers, saving you even more precious time.
Compact Speed Ring: Designed to be as small as possible, making storage and transportation easier, whilst taking up less space than your average softbox of this type.
