Review on Photogenic Mount Studio Flash Compatible Softbox - Fotodiox EZ-Pro 12X56In Quick Collapse by Roberto Garrido

I can think of absolutely nothing negative to say about this product. It sets up and breaks down in a flash. My studio is in my home and the room is multi purpose so the majority of the time it is collapsed. When collapsed its about the same length as a golf umbrella and about 4 times the girth, I can easily tuck it away. I leave the internal and outer diffuser panels attached when I put it away, and when I need to get it out I can pull it out of its case and have it deployed and on my stand in 90 seconds or less. It does exactly what an octobox of this size should, and beautifully diffuses directional light down on my subjects. I do wish I had the grid for it, the version I purchased didn't come with it, but it isn't the end of the world. I haven't noticed any significant color temperature anomolies.Overall, fantastic product, does exactly what it should and seems quite durable.
