Review on πŸ“Έ Profoto RFi Octa Softbox Set of 4 by Daniel Russell

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Beautiful light!

Update: After part of the velcro on this softbox came loose and ripped a hole in the material, I have to take a few stars off my initial rating. It seems like Profoto could use a slightly thicker material and stronger stitching. I was hesitant to buy this 4 foot Octa as the reviews I read said it was extremely difficult to take apart. I'm glad I threw caution to the wind and got it. This is my favorite light modifier. I LOVE the light it gives off and now use it in all my shots. To me, the secret to "easy" disassembly is to pull the bars alternately, rather than going around the ring one at a time. My advice: pull a bar, then pull the bar from the opposite side. If this one is stubborn, try another one, but you should find one that doesn't require too much effort.

Pros
  • Camera and photo
Cons
  • High price
