Review on 🌟 D-Fuse Large LED Light Panel Softbox: Enhancing Portraits with Natural Lighting by Kevin Hauck

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect for a small studio

This diffuser is just what I needed; I have big umbrellas, softboxes, etc., but these things are too big for a small vlog. This diffuser diffuses the light well, but remains small. I am using it with a Neewer 660 LED panel (with barn doors) and it works great. I bought this D-Fuse version instead of the similar model from Neewer because it's a bit larger and I thought I might need a larger size for a different light source in the future. The Neewer light is a bit small to open but I knew that before buying. Opening the barn doors fully keeps most of the light from behind and it all works great together. Quality seems good but I can imagine the support posts tearing the fabric over time as they hold the unit together when stretched. direct pressing on the fabric covering the internal structure of the brace. I think for this price you get that. It doesn't look like it's going to break anytime soon, it just looks like a design flaw that will give way over time. So far I am completely satisfied with the device for the price I bought it. To be honest, even if it were a little torn at this point, it wouldn't affect the use of the item. As others have pointed out, once the diffuser is on top of the LED panel, you can no longer tilt the panel forward as the diffuser rests against the post, preventing tilting. I simply put an elbow joint, which can for example attach an umbrella to a stand, between the stand and the LED, and now it can tilt freely. No problem. When you're done, it folds into a tiny round storage bag.

Pros
  • good stuff
Cons
  • Alles super
