About Chimera Shallow Video Pro Plus 1 Softbox, Large
The Chimera Shallow Video Pro Plus 1 Softbox (Large) for video applications is designed for use with a broad light with a wide throw, such as a Tota light. With fabric rated for the heat of a continuous light up to 500 W, the Extra Small Shallow Plus for video applications is ideal for work in cramped interiors where medium softening of a broad light is desired.
The "Plus" designation of this softbox means the front face of the softbox is removable. This softbox comes with a one-stop diffusion cloth; 1/2 and 1/4 grid cloths are available separately.
This softbox has a built-in "lip" around the edges to help control light spill. This lip also facilitates the attachment of optional honeycomb grids, fabric grids and louvers.
This softbox is only for lights with a very wide throw. The shallow depth of this softbox will not allow the light from a spotlight to spread out adequately within the box. Exposure then would not be as even across the entire front face of the softbox.
