Westcott Softbox Grid

It works, is easy to install, and comes with a nice pouch. If you have the Apollo Softbox and want more control over light spill, this is a good option.

Works as expected

Adds a little extra weight. Make sure you have a decent boom stand and sand bags.

Enhance your photographic lighting control with the precision-engineered 40-Degree Egg Crate Grid for the 28" Medium Apollo. This essential accessory is expertly designed to manage off-axis light across four directions, ensuring that the softness of your large light source is preserved while granting you the power to sculpt light with intention and finesse.

Crafted with a network of meticulously arranged cells, this grid empowers photographers and videographers to add dimension and separation in their images, such as achieving a distinct hair light that stands out crisply against the background. The grid's cell structure is pivotal in directing light forward, significantly reducing unwanted spill light and preventing lens flare, thus enhancing the overall clarity and contrast of your shots.

The 40-degree cell size is a versatile choice for a broad range of lighting scenarios, offering a balance between control and diffusion. It allows for a precise cutoff angle for off-axis light, ensuring that your subject is illuminated with intention, without sacrificing the ambient quality of the scene.

Despite its robust light-shaping capabilities, the grid maintains minimal light loss at the center axis, typically less than a quarter stop, even when positioned 3 to 4 times the diagonal dimension of the light source away. This feature ensures that your subject remains the focal point, bathed in consistent, controlled light.

The Apollo Grid's soft, collapsible design is a boon for photographers on the move, allowing for convenient storage and transport. It comes with a durable nylon carry case, ensuring that your grid remains protected and ready for action whenever inspiration strikes.

Installation is a breeze, thanks to the grid's hook and loop tape system. Simply position your diffusion panel halfway onto the hook tape, leaving ample space for the egg crate grid to attach securely in front of the panel. The unattached corners of the grid are intentionally designed to enable you to stretch it taut, preventing any sagging and ensuring a perfect fit around your Apollo light modifier.

Elevate your lighting technique with the 40-Degree Egg Crate Grid for the 28" Medium Apollo, and experience the difference that professional-grade light control can make in your creative endeavors.

Westcott 40-Degree Egg Crate Grid Features

  • Eliminate spill & flare: As light is focused into a forward direction through use of a grid, it can help to eliminate spill light or lens flare
  • 40-degree spread of light: The off axis portion of the light is controlled by the cell size. The cell size (measured in degrees) describes the maximum cutoff angle of the off axis light. A 40-degree grid is the most popular degree used
  • Light loss: Light loss at the center axis is minimal at a distance 3 to 4 times the diagonal dimension of the light source. On most models it is less than a 1/4 a stop of light
  • Perfect for travel: The grid is soft, that collapse down for easy transport and travel
  • Easy attachment: Grid is easily attach through the use of hook and loop tape. When attaching, place your diffusion panel about 1/2 way in on the hook tape. This will leave enough room for the egg crate to attach directly in front of the diffusion panel
