Softbox works well good soft light transmission but speed ring needs some redesign. Difficult to assemble. Sides of fabric sag making wrinkles in defuser. Used for head shots, table top and fill light.

Use for table top and closeup head shots. Overall useful however there are two problems. The "speedring" is designed to help the assembly. However it is also designed to allow only 1 of 4 ribs rotate. It is very difficult stretching the fabric on such a small box. I drilled out two holes to allow 2 of 4 ribs to rotate and the assembly is now is trouble free. Ribs bend allowing defuser wrinkling in front.
Design A.
The Bowens 60 x 60cm Softbox is ideal for small portraiture or for still life photography. The Bowens range of softboxes has been developed to offer photographers the highest-quality light source at a very modest cost. Their silver interior and shallow construction offers a high degree of efficiency while a translucent diffuser ensures even light distribution.
For a completely even spread of light an internal diffuser has been included to minimize the possibility of hotspots. To ensure easy transportation of your softbox a simple zip up carry case is included as well as a speedring and an 'S' type adaptor for immediate mounting to your monobloc. Also included is a spare rod. Each softbox will accept all wafer adapters and can be used with most popular flash systems.
