I bought this to use with some other Apollo/Halo modifiers for maternity and baby photography. It works as advertised but is incredibly weak and I've bent every Apollo/Halo mod just by using them a few times. The investment costs were therefore low. Also, it quickly becomes very annoying to have to open and close the modifier every time to adjust flash or flash position, power, umbrella stick and change batteries. Again, as long as this product actually works, I would strongly recommend getting a regular 3x4 mesh foldable softbox.
