GODOX Softbox with S Type Bracket Bowens S Mount Holder

Product works as stipulated. Good value for such a versatile product.Easy to setup right out the box/bag.Pulling down is easy as well.Very portable to move around with.Works well both indoors as well as outdoors.

This thing is amazing. Seriously, who wants to mess with assembling soft boxes on location? I just pull it out and *pop* its open and ready to go. It slides (tightly) over the Bowens mount of the bracket (took me a bit the first time), but once on, sits securely. It weighs very little and does a great job. I just wish it came with a grid included. Otherwise, its perfect for my needs! (and it isn't hard to fold back up. Nothing like my 4x6 foot backdrop - I look like and idiot every time trying to get that thing back in the bag! This folds right up easily. Whew!)

For the price, it’s spot on. The poles are quite thin, but they do the job. Perfect for a beginner or back up set.

Note: the sodtbox itself only work on some Bowens mount adaptors it doesn't actually have a ring in it, it stretches over plastic extrusions on the Bowens adaptor. I can use it with my studio lights (which are all Bowens mounts). Everything else is awesome and worth the money. Has an umbrella holder, great for clipping gels infront of speed lights too. Works well with a fresnel or pop up beautydish too.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but the bowens connection situation happens not through the round hole at the back of this soft box, but you slip the ring for the flash bracket behind the corner of the four triangles so the speed light (or bulb) lines up with the hole. Awkward to explain and other reviews tried, but I didn’t understand until after I was trying to physically shove and stretch things through the round hole that doesn’t stretch.Also this thing is LARGE. For some reason I was picturing it being about half the size and ordered it to bring around for table shots at an event. I’m pretty sure this will be more obnoxious than helpful for that purpose, size wise, but I appreciate the portability and quality to price ratio. I was going to buy a speedlight bracket like this for twenty five anyway so I might as well have this softbox add on as a portable alternative to bulkier softboxes.Looks-wise, it has the usual tacky white brand name large on the outer. I’m considering covering that with black gaff tape. The little carrying case is cute and compact. Once set up, it does look a little wonky due to the twisted folded storage situation. Getting the diffusion panel velcroed on straight would help, too but that’s not my strong suit. Was pleasantly surprised this came with a baffle, but the little elastic loops that hold the baffle in feel like they will break in a hot minute.Overall, this is a surprisingly spunky little light modifier and even though it’s not exactly what I pictured size-wise I’ll hang onto it, as it stores compactly and nicely in the bag and provides a nice modifier option for my speedlites.

This is a very nice softbox and the setup and take down makes it so easy and portable

Works great. Excellent results. I recommend finding a YouTube video to learn how to fold, it’s NOT intuitave. Otherwise you’ll spend a lot of time figuring it out. I purchased the 60x60 also, but not as part of a kit. Buy the kit and the zip bag will hold everything. Buy the isoftbox ndividually and the bag is only for the softbox without the stand adapter.

Why didn't I buy this sooner!? This thing is awesome! I have 2 other softboxes that just use constant lights in it and wanted to start using my flash with the softbox. After reading many reviews, I decided to try the GODOX. This thing make shooting with a flash a lot of fun. You can get really creative with this get some cool shots. I really enjoy how compact it folds into after using it. It's very easy to assemble and disassemble. The size - although it states the dimensions in product info, I wasn't really sure how big it was going to be. When fully assembled, it is pleasantly large or I would say I was surprised how large it is :)

S bracket holder screw handle will stuck if you want to tighten or loose it after when you put the softbox.But if you are really Patience this is good for it's price.

Value for money. Speedy delivery. Well built, good quality, compact and professional kit. Takes your photography to next level. A must to have part of your gear.

Very easy to set up. Would recommend a good styrdy lightstand as the soft box is quite big and can see it tipping over by a strung gust of wind. Other then that, very portable and easy to assemble.

Softbox looks good and solid built quality, the flash bracket works great,Edit: With some help from a youtube video I figured out that the softbox mounts on the flash bracket without a matching Bowens adapter. So it works, but instructions could be a bit better. Changed my rating accordingly!Now I have to figure out how the things folds back up without knocking a tooth out......

I think it's perfect for home/studio use. Could prove a bit flimsy for mobile lighting, but still easybto pack and setup... Throws good light. The grid does good job (sold separately) but the velcro strap on the soft box is too narrow for both the front diffuser and the grid - so if you want to add a grid, will have to use half of the width for the diffuser and half for the grid (a bit tricky but doable).
