the bad: this octabank is moderately hard to set up, uses pretty cheap materials, and is pretty heavy for most strobe heads. the good: very large, soft, light source. there is nothing close to this for the price. get a couple so you have a backup and you will still be at less than 1/3 the cost of comprable octas.

Wasn't easy to set up:( but if you are serious about spectacular lighting its big time worth ! The lighting what this is producing is just unmatched if you are shooting large groups of people

The unique 71" Glow Grand Softbox is amazing! It features construction of parabolic design providing the ideal source for mastering all location situations where quality counts by imitating natural sunlight - even in the sports arena or outdoors on the playing field. The highlight /shadow ratio is optimized with a concentrated focus of illumination from the special bowl reflector, reverse umbrella design. The 71" Grandbox combines the strength of a key light while acting as a great reflector, maximizing your single light source into a blaze of directed soft light. The super even coverage handles larger groups and objects, blending perfectly with fill soft daylight. The most popular uses of this size Grand shape are for utilizing the extreme potential of studio strobes, whether for covering live unpredictable action, deliberate giant area illumination or a blinding bath of strobe from a distance. Of course, you can always use this softbox for typical full length fashion, portrait, and beauty photography. There is exceptional light efficiency in this design and the flattering results reveal human form with grace and warmth. The entire series employs advanced technology designed to create perfect images for editorial and product still life, like large appliance and vehicles.
Glow Softbox materials and construction are superior. The critical ingredients in this softbox are the internal reflective fabric, the custom designed front diffuser/baffle and the precise shape of the box. Super strength silver fabric finely line the interior surfaces of the box and add a crisp quality to the output. Light spread is extremely even, pleasing and contrast balanced. Reinforced support rod pockets, seams and Velcro closures make assembly and setup trouble-free.
