I decided to do a test assembly before a planned shoot. I'm familiar with softboxes and was unable to locate any pockets or openings for the support rods. Thinking maybe there's some trick I'm missing I searched online for instructions. Find a Phottix video on this particular box. Multiple comments stating that the rod pockets were stitched closed! You have to cut open the stitching to insert the rods. Very poor quality control. The sewers obviously had no idea how this product was supposed to work. The materials look good but this is just inexcusable.

The soft box does what it's supposed to do at a very reasonable price. My only complaint is that the rods fall out of their holders easily. On other soft boxes like Chimeras the rod fit in a sleeve that runs the whole length of the soft box. On the Phottix there are pockets at the corners of the soft box and a ring of material halfway back towards the light opening to hold the support rods. I've modified mine so that the rod ends are better secured in their pockets so they won't tend to come out.

While these things smell pretty awful when they arrive (that heavy plastic smell), they are a very good deal for what you get. This kind of box can be tough to setup give the spring bars, but get that done and you have a 5x1 strip for all sorts of shooting that is VERY competitive on $$$.

Great strip box for the price. I use this with a Profoto B1 head, and the Phottix speedring and adapter for the Profoto mount. With the included grid its an awesome deal. Light output is even with its internal baffle. I thought about going to the bigger one, but glad I did not - I get good illumination with this size for full body shots.

Softboxes are a staple light modifier for many photographers, both in the studio and on location. After extensive research and feedback from Phottix Pro Team photographers they developed the new Solas Series. Constructed from a new material - SL-Tech - the Solas series are both light-weight and strong. With the standard fire and heat-resistant properties, SL-Tech fabric is both highly reflective to minimize light loss and durable enough to stand up to years of assembly and disassembly without warping or changing shape. Grid included! Better control your light and prevent unwanted spills.
