Great addition to my kit!

Great

This is exactly what I was looking for to add to my Profoto setups. Easy to install to the ring and much smaller in size. Nice soft light.

Just the right size!

When buying this product do I also need a speed ring?

Question

Thin and Flimsy

I'd review it if I would've gotten delivered. 
I ordered all together. 
My B1x 
An air remote and the 2' octa. 
My light got lost in transit so I had to contact customer support they sent another one but I needed it within same week. 
Have in mind that all of these items I ordered them one week prior so that I'd have time to test the light along with diffuser and remote to make sure everything worked properly for my trip. 
I did receive the air remote which couldn't use without the light. 

I received my 2'octa with one of the metal tips from the rods missing. So I contacted customer support. 
I was instructed via email ... to send it back with a return form 
Where it asked if I wanted a return or wanted exchange. 
*** I WANTED AN EXCHANGE but few days later I received an email saying that the amount charged would be returned fully to my CC. 
So .... I never received the exchange item and have not seen the reimbursement reflected on my statement yet. 
I really needed the item since I was going out of town to Chicago for a wedding so I then purchased another one at B&H photo. They shipped it same day and I got it on time for my trip. 

You will obtain beautiful results with it !!!

One of the issues I have had over the past few decades, is that most light shapers are designed for in-studio use, being heavy, complicated and not much fun to wrangle when on-location. The 2' OCF Octo is a delight! You don't even notice any additional weight and it is very easy to assemble. I enjoy attaching grids to my lighting to control spill, and the OCF Grid Kit is sublime. They securely lock in place and don't require using a 7" reflector, making it compact and less to carry around.
If you are using either B1's or B2's, I highly recommend adding these to your kit!

Perfect light-weight light shaping tools!

Used the soft box on a senior portrait shoot in Memphis.  Gorgeous images!!!   The quality of light combined with the B1 ALMOST justifies the price of BOTH the soft box and the speed ring. I deducted a star due to the extra expense for the speed ring. That almost caused me to bypass the purchase.   Glad I didnt now.  Just ordered another set for my other B1 

Pro Level Quality of Light

Fast and easy to set up and break down.  Beautiful light. I got this to light weddings and portraits. Very portable, takes up no pace when collapsed.
