Do not buy if using Aputure Lights

Bought 2 of these softboxes, waited over a week for them and then they didn't fit my 120d! I don't think this is the real Bowens Mountain. So don't buy these if you use Aputure lamps. Switch to a newer one.

Pros
  • Finally bought
Cons
  • Hard to say

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Not easy to set up. Not portable.

Not "easy" to set up without touching too much white fabric and possibly contaminating it. The spokes don't go into position easily and you have to reach and adjust them. Also, considering its folded length, it definitely cannot be carried around. At the same time, it's too cheap to be considered a studio investment.

Pros
  • I hold my fists
Cons
  • Can hurt

Tons of soft light if you have the space

This provides a significant amount of soft light from my Godox SL 225W LED lights. One of the issues you have to contend with is how tall this system is when fully assembled. It is over a meter from the edge of the LED light to the edge of the dome light! So unless you have a 20ft cathedral ceiling and an extended C-stand length, you probably can't elevate this above a 6ft+ talent. pawl.

Pros
  • So far so good
Cons
  • Compatibility
