Photography Manager

It works great. A lot easier to use in the field than umbrellas.

Love it hate it

I have mixed reviews about this product. On the one hand, it?s an excellent multi purpose modifier which is versatile and easy to set up. That being said, it?s a real pain trying to break it down for packing. There are no instructions on how to break it down. There?s no release latch and if you put too much force you can bend or break the rods. There you have it

Rapid Box

Small enough to travel with. Does a great job of creating softlight. Love it. Covers a bigger area than I expected.

A great modifier

This Rapid Box provides great light, as you would expect from a 48" octi. Goes up like a dream. Disassembly is equally easy, once you know what to look for. The shaft doesn't lock like a regular umbrella. Instead, two rings lock against one another. I think you are supposed to give one a 1/4 turn, but I didn't and had no problems. Using a small screwdriver, you insert the tool between the two rings, twist slightly and they separate very easily. Then it folds like any umbrella. I was getting very frustrated when trying to close until I realized how the mechanism works. Then, no problems.

Great Soft box

I purchased this soft box after watching many videos of other photographers. I've already gotten great results out of the soft box and the explore 600 flash. My only concern was the mounting bracket that connects to the flash unit came lose and fell off. Adorama was more than willing to exchange it.

Easy to setup and transport

Great for your portable studio, do so much more now away from my studio and these are great, the Westcott Rapid line are very good for speed of setting up and to transport. Easy umbrella design, even the strip boxes they offer. (I wish they were a little bigger , the strip boxes). I'm now using these with the Flashpoint XPLOR 600 HSS system. Your studio on the go and now using this in my studio. Battery powered High Speed sync strobes. You won't be disappointed with these, they are made well and will last a long time with normal use.

About Westcott Rapid Box Switch Octa-M with Godox & Bowens Switch Insert

- Rapid Box Switch Octa-M -

The Softbox That Changes With You
The Rapid Box Switch is designed for use with the most popular strobes, speedlites, and monolights. With 13 interchangeable light mount inserts and 9 collapsible light modifiers, this is the premier softbox series that Switches with you.

Designed for Portability
Constructed with solid aluminum umbrella-inspired framework, the design of the Rapid Box Switch maximizes durability, minimizes weight, eliminates the need for separate support rods, and makes setup a breeze. Everything is simple, quick, and compact. After your shoot, the Rapid Box Switch breaks down instantly into a sleek carry case for travel and storage.

An Ingenious Light Modifier
Pairing durable fabrics with a quick-collapse frame, our Rapid Box Switch softboxes offer the professional light modification that you're looking for without the tedious setup.

Premium Diffusion Fabric
Our diffusion panels are constructed with an all-natural, unbleached nylon fabric. Unlike processed diffusion fabrics, these diffusers will soften your light source without altering its color temperature.

The Must-Have Accessory
The optional Deflector Plate minimizes hot spots and creates a stunning beauty-style light output. These plates are easy to use with all Rapid Box softboxes.

Rear-Mounted Lights
We purposely designed the Rapid Box Switch with an external mount. By keeping your speedlight or strobe outside of the softbox, you can quickly access controls and utilize the line-of-sight (or optical wireless) functionality. Of course, radio triggers can be used as well.


- Switch Insert (Godox, Bowens) -

Interchangeable Mounts for the Most Popular Lights
Inserts attach your light source to any Rapid Box Switch or Beauty Dish Switch modifier in an instant. This versatile system gives you the ability to mount a variety of off-camera flashes to the same Switch softbox.

Just Slide, Click, and Start Shooting
These durable all-metal adapters slide quickly into your Switch's rear tabs. They instantly secure in place with the Switch's sliding thumb-lock.

Care Instruction
Gently spot clean diffusion panels by hand with a non-bleach laundry detergent. Softboxes are unable to be cleaned. Applying cleaner to a reflective surface may damage the product. Switch Insert: Wipe with dry cloth
