Umbrella hole in wrong position

Reflector works as it should and accepts a standard 7 inch grid. the umbrella hole should be in the wrong position, a bit of work with a drill fixes the problem, but it's a pity to fix the manufacturer's mistakes.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Almost never

But the product is exactly what I expected.

Disclaimer: The product is exactly as I expected. My only issue here has to do with the shipping. It survived shipping but was shipped in the actual product packaging (see image), an easy-open hinged box that wasn't even sealed with tape. I'm not a fan of repackaged stuff but this was quite unexpected for me.

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • No performance

I was planning to use this reflector with the Godox AD-B2 dual flash adapter. The reflector fits the AD-B2 perfectly BUT the umbrella hole punched in the side of the reflector does not match the AD-B2 umbrella mount. So you can't use the AD-B2's reflector with an umbrella unless you want to drill an extra hole in the reflector.

Pros
  • New to my collection
Cons
  • Instead of the old

Don't say Bowens S for this reflector

I love this reflector. Use it with a 7" Pergear Diffuser and a Sto Fen Omni Bounce Diffuser. I experimented a bit and used it with a 7" Pergear Flash Diffuser on my flash to create a softer shadow line and more even diffused light .So.The mount on this one is a Bowens mount.It is not a Bowens ABC or D mount, just a Bowen mount.What you mount on this reflector can have a Bowens mount with an S type flash adapter , but the letter means what happens on the other side of the bracket.

Pros
  • Have a good time
Cons
  • Not everything fits

Fits my needs: Reflectors

2 year old update. Continues to work well with my S-type braces. But I also have a studio light with a reflector, which is a bit small and spreads more light than I need. And of course I want to use an umbrella. It was easy enough to drill a new umbrella hole in the reflector to match the studio light's Bowens position. Now I'm getting the effective light magnification from this flash that I wanted. original thoughts. This is a good reflector at a reasonable price. I use it with Speed Flares on

Pros
  • Dope ๐Ÿ”ฅ
Cons
  • Slightly Crumpled

The umbrella hole does not match the umbrella hole on Godox S-Mount or AD-B2. AD600, don't believe it. It works as a reflector, but you have to drill a new hole to use the umbrella. Mine had the little flap snapped off anyway so I would have had to use reflective tape to use it. Fix this hole if I changed this thing. I think it was used and resold to be honest. so if it wasn't broken and works for Godox's own S-Mount material, it would otherwise be a very good reflector for the price!

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • High price

DO NOT BUY. Wrong size and hole for umbrella in wrong place.

Purchased to use with the Godox barn door kit for standard 7" reflectors. The barn doors do not fit properly because they are too small. I should have read the reviews.) Considering the price, I don't want to deal with returning this product. But I will not buy from the seller again because he lied and didn't take the product back or explicitly disclose problems. And I don't dare to buy the brand because the problems with the product are just crazy about something that should be so easy. Alsoโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Repair

Super wearable and goes well with an umbrella

I love that the umbrella fits through this reflector. I use it with my Godox AD600BM and have found that I can put my umbrella on it with no problem. This reflector alone doesn't do anything, but combined with a 7-inch diffuser it can provide reasonably good spread of outside light when it's just too windy for more. I'm fine on the mount and I've spread the light well on the white background (I've placed two AD600BMs behind the background (7x9) and managed to get a broadly even light on itโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Off fashion
