Review on 📸 Neewer 47''/ 120cm Octagonal Softbox Umbrella: Ideal for Canon Nikon Sony Speedlite, Studio Flash - Perfect for Portrait or Product Photography (Black) by Ethan Dualimace

As a light modifier for my Canon 580EX external flash, this Neewer umbrella/softbox works really well. The front surface gives the subject plenty of soft, even light, although the depth of the softbox makes it a little awkward in the tight spaces I often shoot in (I photograph newborns, usually in their homes). . The umbrella is easy to open and close, so it packs into a handy travel bag for portability. The open slot at the bottom makes it easy to place on the stand and attaching the white diffuser plate is easy as it has velcro strips around the edges. I just leave mine loose because I don't want the loud noise of the velcro to disturb a sleeping baby if for some reason I have to reach inside to adjust the flash head. I'm sure this won't be the last softbox I'll ever buy, but for the aspiring professional shooter this is an easy investment with an immediate payback in terms of the great light it produces.
