Review on Fomito Lighting Softbox Honeycomb Monolight by Nick Winnett

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good quality on lighting controls and modifiers

Mine is branded "godox" but I think it's the same company. There are no instructions either. However, this is a quality unit and can be shot when connected to a studio flash. The supplied aluminum Bowens ring consists of two parts that are inserted into each other and rotated. So the softbox box rotates 360 degrees even when mounted in a 3-lug Bowens mount, with a thumbscrew inside to lock the orientation/rotation, which you can achieve through the velcro straps on the back. This is a great thing because I'm new and had no idea if it would rotate horizontally and vertically without taking it off the studio flash. I think I'll just leave the thumbscrew loose so I can always turn it - it doesn't spontaneously turn inside. When disassembled it is very small. I don't think I want to collect it too often though.

Pros
  • Waiting for
Cons
  • The list will be long.
