Cheap materials but they do the job.

Handle folds easily for storage making it harder to attach, but works well when slipped over a diffuser.

Pros
  • Lighting & Studio
Cons
  • Gotchas

Perfect fit for my Neewer Ocotobox

Wish there was a little more Velcro around the rim for more grip but so far so good. Tough enough for the work we ask of it. Many Thanks

Pros
  • Lighting
Cons
  • Some difficulties

that works great. Tough enough

Works great despite the reviews. He's tough enough. It's always in my softbox. I've taken it apart a few times with no problems other than saving such an odd shape. because I couldn't remember how it was folded in the package.

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Too long to wait

I expected a lot less. And I was pleasantly surprised

for the price. This fabric weave is way better than what I was afraid of finding in the mail. I would buy it again. ! Very well made from durable material and fits very snugly on the 47" Octo softbox I bought the light to retrofit. I'm very glad I chose Godox. Well done kids!

Pros
  • camera and photo
Cons
  • disappearance

Nice reflector, great with a small modification.

Gives good light, very evenly lit portrait shots. It would have gotten five stars if it wasn't so difficult to use. ---Your light is hidden inside and you can't reach it without tearing off the diffuser with velcro. It's annoying. Also, you can't grab the light stand to move it because it's hidden inside and that big reflector requires you to bend down and grab the stand very deep, then everything is very difficult. I solved the problem by attaching an 18 inch white zipper to the diffuser…

Pros
  • Lighting controls and modifiers
Cons
  • Something's wrong

Fits Fotodiox Ez-Pro 48 " Octabox

I bought this grille for EZ-Pro 48" Octabox as apparently Fotodiox discontinued it. I bought several other Fotodiox EZ-Pro Grids, the quality is not very good but the price is. Didn't expect it to fit (since it's listed as 47 inches) but I've worked with it (although a bit tight, not necessarily a problem). Overall quality is a bit below Fotodiox, but not by much. It's basically the same idea (fabric mesh with velcro around each of the 8 sides for attachment to the softbox). I'd say it's about…

Pros
  • Softboxes
Cons
  • Not all fit
