Under the trusted brand name of Glow, the Series III Large Square Softbox (36 x 36") is a professional-grade, high-quality lighting accessory designed for both studio and on-location photography and videography. This versatile softbox is engineered to provide a harder soft light, ideal for situations where you desire diffusion but also need a richer contrast for more direct lighting. Unlike rectangular softboxes that create an open window look, this large square softbox focuses intensity into the scene, making it a staple tool for any photographer. It's particularly effective for portrait, wedding, editorial, and product still life photography, where perfect image creation is paramount. Constructed with superior materials, the Series III Large Square Softbox features an internal reflective fabric that optimizes light distribution. The front diffuser and inner baffle, both removable, work in harmony to soften and diffuse the light, resulting in an extremely even, pleasing, and contrast-balanced illumination. The shape of this 36" x 36" softbox, coupled with its black exterior, makes it suitable for use with both natural and artificial light sources. Its universal design ensures compatibility with continuous lights and a wide range of camera models and lighting setups. With reinforced support rod pockets, seams, and Velcro closures, the assembly and setup of this durable softbox are trouble-free, making it an easy-to-use tool for professionals and enthusiasts alike. Experience the Glow difference with the Series III Large Square Softbox, a testament to the brand's commitment to quality and innovation in lighting equipment.

Let me be clear... this is not a bad item, but it was a poor choice on my part for my use case.  I travel to workshops and shoots, and generally take an Xplor 300 or two for main flash.  Suitcase space is a premium, particularly when the airlines are charging more and more for an extra bag.  I have the 20 inch version of the parasnap in a different brand and was looking for a larger version of the same item.  Let's just say this ain't it.  The parasnap folds very flat, has a single motion set-up and is great for tossing in a suitcase for a destination shoot.  This one has a mount ring larger than a Bowens and remains a very sizable tube.  It also requires clicking each of the rods into position.  There's no inner layer of diffusion.  On the other hand, the material is nice quality and the rods look like they take take quite a bit of abuse.  It would work great if you have a cabinet in a studio to toss it in, or in the trunk of the car for just around town.  Any time space is critical, though, this is not the best choice.  In my case, the Glow EZ lock softbox in the Xplor 300/400 mount is a much smaller package and substantially lower cost for the same size softbox.  Your mileage may vary.

Not a bad item, but not travel-friendly

The Glow HexaPop 24" II Octagonal Softbox with OTA Adapter Set and Bowens Mount is amazing! I absolutely love it! Not only is it super cute, but it's also incredibly practical. It fits perfectly on rectangle-head flashes, making it a versatile addition to my lighting kit.

The light it produces is soft and flattering, ideal for portraits or on-the-go setups. It's lightweight, easy to assemble, and a fantastic size for portability without sacrificing quality.

Adorama was great as always-fast shipping and excellent service. Highly recommend both this softbox and Adorama for all your photography needs!

Cute AND Practical

Create strip boxes that are easy to assembly and durable.  I have owned these for 3 years and they are holding up great!

easy to assembly and durable

Okay, I gave it a five star, but if I had a choice, I would give it an 4.5. It's not perfect but it has held up for 3 years and still is going strong. The light quality is good and clean. It would be nice if the back panels would Velcro would be able to reach and close together. Only 2 to three, but on the other hand, that would be better ventilation. Enough with the whining, For your first soft-box it is a steal. I wouldn't hesitate to suggest to buying it, especially, if its your first light modifier.!!! Buy it!!!

Just buy it.

Product itself is great quality but the website description could have been more clear to alert customer that in order for product to work you need to purchase additional mechanisms that do not come with it. Picture of item is very deceiving.

Need to purchase additional items for this to work

I regret purchasing this softbox. The rods are supposed to go into pockets in the corners but 3 of the 4 corners are completely sewn on what appears may possibly be intended to be a pocket. One of the corners has a pocket with a piece of velcro which opens and allows for the rod to be inserted from the outside and then the velcro can be folded over to make a pocket.

A poorly designed and built softbox

Using this in studio and have it attached to a 500ws mono light for tabletop work. Light spread and flatness of light is very good. Large sized box would be great to use for model work too.

Nicely Made Soft Box is Versatile in Studio

Built extremely well. Has a multitude of uses (small product, hair light, side light) I've never been disappointed purchasing from Adorama. A1-1st Class-5 Stars

Glow Series III Extra Small

Hard too assemble it till learn the trick to it. Does the job well. Hard to connect ring part to the light attachment. I have it set all the time,but if you're going to set it on and off,on and off all the time will sticks gets bent/curved.

Works great. I'm just not too crazy with these STICKS attachment system

Great softball. Works well doing portrait work full-length as a blacklisting and grid.

Excellent  soft box.

This softbox was hard to put together, didn?t come made right so I couldn?t even get the rods in. Was not able to test it working. Adorama did a fantastic job with customer service to get my products returned due to the defect.

Seemed nice but what I got was defective.

Fantastic. Great white light. Because the interior is silver, I can dial my light to a lower setting of power.

Good color

A better use for fill light than a standard reflector. This is a very sturdy and firm softbox. Perfect size for the job.

Softbox built to last

I use this product for rim lighting in my small studio. Give great results.

Sturdy Stripbox

Let?s start off with these are great but? when ordering you need to order all the components separately, no speed rings not grids and for that they get a 3 star

Sad face

Just as advertised but a pain to assemble! If you have the room assemble and leave in a corner until ready for use. Sturdy construction. Does not come with any strobe bracket or mounting of any kind. Remember to order separately!

Glow 36?x 12? strip box!

FOR THE PRICE, this is a great bargain. I've only had mine a couple of months, so don't know how it will hold up over the long run. I am a full time commercial photographer, so my equipment gets used regularly. The one issues I had, is that when it's mounted on my bowen's speed rings, the stretch of the fabric is so tight, that the velcro flaps that close up the back would not fully close, one or two of them wouldn't close at all. A friend ripped out and restitched the velcro so there would be more area of contact, but it just shows what you get from a $60 product vs. a $300+ product. :-)

Excellent bargain for the price - but had to modify it.

My loved this! Perfect addition to her studio!

It?s A Box that?s Soft

Decent softbox, but nothing special. You will need to purchase additional items to be able to use it, i.e. ring mount and a grid if you need a grid.

Decent softbox, nothing special.

Easy set up, distributes light the way it?s supposed too. Amazing quality.

Another win!

Small and efficient. Note it does not come with a speed ring. Buying a Bowens mount almost doubles the purchase price. Overall good buy.

Bowens mount double a the price

These are awesome!

Great size for a hair light, easy to assemble

Perfect for hair light.

The light produced is actually pretty nice for the money, but the light spread is very uneven. I can see a clear cross shape in the diffuser.

Not too bad for the price

I used to take my kids portraits, giving me  excellent results

Good quality, and beautiful results using this product with amateur gear

beautiful portraits with this useful product.

good quality softbox

I really love all the glow products I have. They always seem to hold up well and reflect beautifully

I’m a glow fan

Awsome modifier!

Great strip lights for smaller situations.
Offer good light spread for separation or hair light.
