Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?ENRIQUE S : I need to complete a videography project for a client which requires traveling and this product is small enough to fit into a checked bag and doesn't take up as much space.WILLIAM M : Recommended for my light Amaran 200x sERNEST I : Already have the lantern needed something with less light spillRAY M : what I'm looking for for my Aputure lightPAUL H : needed to use with my Aputure 300x kitbarry s : Much Lighter than the Light Dome II !!!YOVANNY F : PriceMIGUEL S : I have the Aputure Light Dome II with the Bowens Mount and I love. But the Aputure Light Dome SE Fit better on my pelican.JONATHAN B : businessJOYCE E : I picked this item after watching oh so many reviews. I loved the quality of light it produced and as for the " difficulty of setup" reviews, my work is 85% studio so this will be a setup and leave it softbox.MOHAMMAD H : It's good for my studio space and I think will be fit to my Amaran 60d without breaking itCARLOS E : Light WeightJOHN G : I’m just a new content creatorALEXANDRA P : great sizeEUNICE E : Online reviews on multiple sites and the price point made this a smart choice for me. The draw back will be the assembly, so we'll see how much of a nightmare it is. But you trade weight for work.JOE P : All Aputure products are high quality. I got this smaller dome since the Dome II I have is great but sometimes too large for small spaces. this is perfect for smaller sets.KYLE R : I wanted a small portable light diffuser.CHANEY R : To pair with my Amaran 200xTOPHER H : Aputure Light Dome Original was a beast but It was big. If you have a smaller space, or are limited and you want that same look plus it comes in at a cheaper price point.JOHN M : Hoping it lives up to the promise

SE Dome

Great but a bit of a hassle to set up. If I had the space for the upgraded version with the built in umbrella effect I would. This one is much slimmer because it folds flat.

I honestly don't understand reviews that say it's hard st setup. I'm in my 60's and had no problems. It has beautifuly soft light, comes with 3 defusers and a grid. Lighter Than most of the same size and is perfect for a smaller studio. Loving the Aputure SE!

Beats Waiting for the Mini II

Super easy to use. Assembly is a pain at first, but you get used to it. It's almost worth the extra $30 USD for the Mini II, but...goodluck getting one of those. My Mini II has been on backorder for six months or so. Great alternative.

Great Budget Softbox with One Compromise

Functionally, this is a fantastic softbox. It's large and provides soft lighting. The included grid helps you control the light as well. Docking one for the annoying set up time. That said, if you're not traveling much with it, just set it and forget it.

Great soft box for beginners!

A little hard to setup at first but once done, it is a great soft box with a lot of accessories if needed, like double diffusion!
