Review on πŸ“· Godox UBW 47" Octagon Umbrella Softbox: Professional Studio Bowens Mount Ring for Strobe Speedlite Flash Photography by Carolyn Lawson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

So far so good, time will tell.

Just wanted to say it has a folding umbrella function, the umbrella handle doesn't extend all the way so you have to put it through the center section when setting up and taking down. It's hard to put back in your pocket, but it works. Comes with a lock nut, thumbscrew and washer to secure the Octabox to the Bowen mount (you can rotate to mount). Instructions? Why do you even need it. You thread each slot through the small tab, then the velcro tab, and finally the end tab. Do this for all 8 splines. Put on the counter nut. Ready. Conditional 4 stars - let's see how durable it is. The downside is that there is no mesh.

Pros
  • Camera and photo
Cons
