Comments about Interfit Photographic Interfit Photographic Strobie XS Bracket Kit with Softbox & Stand:

The unit is put together well. It is large and not easily packed. While it is large there is little room for mounting the speed light. I've got a 580 EX II and when mounted in this holder it nearly extends beyond the reflector which in my opinion renders the reflector pretty much useless. To much light loss. The holder doesn't work with a Vivitar 285. Additionally the speed light controls aren't easily accessed if mounted horizontally. I had intended to use this with two speedlights. You will notice the second mount is on top of the unit. This makes the two flash heads very far apart with the second head being very far from the center of the umbrella. I ended up making my own holder out of some flat bar that cost me about [$] to make several two light holders.It is advertised to be used with a 16x16 softbox with an S mounting bracket and I haven't been able to find one that mounts to this bracket.I've read a review of the grids that apparently don't fit into the reflector. Unless there are more accessories to be fitted to this product, spend your money on something else.
