Review on 📸 Neewer 47in/120cm Octagonal Softbox Umbrella with Red Edges & Carrying Bag for Portrait/Product Photography, Compatible with Canon Nikon Sony Speedlite, Studio Flash (Black/Red) by Ramon Hood

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A really great standard all-round softbox. If this is your first softbox, get this one.

So I got a lot of Neewer gear from those years. Great price and reliable device. This softbox is a great example. Very good average pack size. Round softboxes are great for portraits, as the light in the eyes appears round and natural. I tend to use Square/Rec softboxes for working with objects and still lifes, they're more like a window shape. However, you can also use this for still lifes. Suitable and perhaps more designed for flashes, but you can see it fits and works for large flashes as well. and this "in softbox" style is great for mounting in tighter spaces than Bowens mounting options etc. I had about 5 of these. Will get more if needed.

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
