YES it does fit the Astra

YES it does fit the Astra if you shorten the straps which is easy to do. Just fold and tape. Now with that said the snap bag is faster to put on but 3 times the price and no grid. For the price this is a 5 star item.

Pretty Good

Happy with this buy, for the price and quality. I gave four stars because, though it's universal, it doesn't quite fit my Dracast LED1000 lights perfectly. It's almost perfect, but not quite. It's great to have the reflective material on the inside and the grid that comes with.

This does the job

As far as soft boxes goes, this custom fit box does the trick however at $ it seems a bit overpriced. Still, an essential part of the kit. Seems well made although time will be the ultimate judge of durability.

Didn't Fit Astra

For the price this product is very well made and would have been perfect, but it was too small for the Astra. This is perfect for a standard 1 x 1.

Finally a Professional quality LED softbox and intensifier

I have been waiting for someone to come out with a softbox and intensifier for LEDs for some time and this one does the trick really well It is high quality at an excellent price giving you options with an internal diffuser and egg crate. I really like it and would give 5 stars except that it takes s little fusing to get on and off with the Velcro straps and the egg crate is a little flimsy.
