When I first saw this soft box available at this price, I thought it was too good to be true, but how wrong could I be. It is surprisingly good value, there are other expensive equivalents available, which I have also used, but I have to say, this is on par with them. I recently took part in a photoshoot, we used both expensive alternatives and these Godox ones. It has to be said. That comparing the final images from the different soft boxes, you can see no difference between the images. The Godox boxes are light, strong and extremely easy to setup, you simply open it like and umbrella, fit it over your light source and stand, and attach the white diffuser using the velcro.

I was looking for a fairly large softbox that I could assemble reasonably quickly on location, without having to scrabble-around messing about with rods and housings. So I thought I'd go for an umbrella-style softbox. I also wanted to be able to fit three speedlights into it, using a three-way adapter that would fit on the central rod inside the softbox, rather than trying to get the speedlights to peer into a hole at the back.So when I saw the low price of this piece of kit, I thought, why not? If it turns out to be rubbish it's not a big deal.But it's surprisingly good. Sturdy, everything fits properly as it should, it's solidly constructed,

I ordered this on a weekend evening and it was delivered by lunch time the following day. Excellent delivery and well packaged. I was doubtful about the build & light quality for such a low price but I was wrong. Easy to setup and pack away. A Velcro/stud strap to keep the brolly closed when not in the bag(no strap on bag either) would have been a nice finishing touch but nothing major. The Velcro on the diffuser is about half the width of the Velcro inside the wall of the brolly which I've found makes attaching the diffuser easier and quicker. Velcro and stitching seems good. Have yet to try it outside in any strong breezes.

Godox is one of those secrets photographer need to get to know. This softbox is well build and easy to use. Packs down quickly to fit into it's carrying sleeve. So much easier to use than a conventional softbox and very portable.Single rod in the middle for mounting, can be used with speedlights with an additional mount or studio strobes fit inside if they can hold an umbrella.Looked after right it will last for years to come, but if it does get damaged on location it's 10s of pounds not 100s.

Great bit of kit - gives a nice large and soft / even light ideal for portraits. Also gives a nice catchlight in the eyes. It is very well balanced when on the light stand, which in turn makes it really stable - certainly compared to my large 'square' flash softbox that is quite topple-prone.Definitely recommended, and at the price is a bit of a steal. Bear in mind you'll need a swivel or other means to mount your flash / speedlight, this is just the softbox.

This is an absolute record!The umbrella got to Estonia less than 1 day. This is 2, 875 kilometers!!!I'm a demanding Designer & Fashion designer etc...1) I am evaluating design of the umbrella, the idea and its quality on a scale of 5.2) I evaluate packaging of the product at the maximum scale. 5+. Everything is very thought out and very strongly! By Amazon. Not Chinese...P.S! If at the time exploitation, I observe anything, then I change my comment.

well made difficult to initially erect but fine once erected, quite a pain to collapse hopefully will become easier through experience and rods and fabric becoming a bit more flexible over time? use with two speedlights via an adaptor and gives a good quality of light

Works well so far, though only used it two times. I'm using this with a tt685c (with x-t1c trigger on camera)I'd buy the 95cm version for a tt685 flash, as it's slightly too big for the flash, but workable.Use this one with the AD200 maybe.

The colour is slightly greenish to my eyes - so it can only be used alone (or alongside an identical soft box) as long as you use a grey card for WB. I can't use this with my other soft box due to the colour difference.

nice large modifier, will give great soft light, i purchased a seperate grid to fit in it. this is better than previous umbrella softboxes i have purchased which had metal struts which pierced through the outside shell.

A great product. Much better quality than the Phottix as it have fibre glass rods instead of metal rods.Just in case you want to know the folded length it is 90cm and fits into a manfrotto 90cm bag.

Light weight, easy to put up and attach. Really softens light for portraits and is directional. However, the degree of tilt is limited - fit on a boom arm and you'll be fine.

Good value for the money. I would use indoors only as due to the size a light breeze would blow it down. Still great value though, you won't be disappointed.

SOFT LIGHT!!! game changer. Just need a godox or stronger light for it as I first tried it with my led panel and it wasn’t enough. It’s great though

Feels solid, opens and closes easily and the white screen is easy to attach.Works well as a beauty dish without the white panel in too
