Will not replace your softboxes. When you need it, it is better than having nothing

I got this after watching a Lynda.com learning path about product photography. I have a gazillion light modifiers in my kit, but this one is great. Easy to use + these make it super easy to increase the size of my SB 910. So lightweight. Individually these pieces fit easily in the back pocket of my Domke F3XB bag. They come in a nice flat zippered pouch. I cannot recommend this set enough. Just get it.

Works very well as modifiers for speedlites. Allows me to do studio work with the speedlites.

I was keen to receive my Westcott Erin Manning flash box kit to use on both my crop and full frame Canon DSLRs. When set up right, they soften the harsh light of a camera mounted speedlite, and should also do well off camera (though I have yet to try this). Main problems are: (I). The mounting "throats" are sized to fit electronic flashes with big heads. The flash boxes fit well with my Sigma 600 series flash, but when tightened down on my Canon 430 EX II, this scrunched in the sides of the box preventing the full light of the flash evenly reaching the front panel. (Ii). The distance between the front and the back of the boxes are about one inch too long, causing the front bottom lip of all but the smallest box to cause a shadow across the top of the photo. To avoid this, you have to tilt the flash box slightly upwards, and this results in uneven light. Interestingly, the co-developer of the boxes with Westcott, Erin Manning, in her helpful training module, uses a full frame 24-105 EF lens (and thus longer) on a crop frame Rebel. This circumvents the problem, but if you mount a EF-S lens like the 15-85 or the 18-55 kit lens on a crop frame DSLR (the more likely combination), the problem returns. Off-camera with slaves, this is obviously not an issue. Bottom line: nice kit and video, but scope for improving the next version.

I hoped for quality and the actual utility of this kit. The diffusers attach securely and produce abundant and soft light output. The kit is well made and very portable.I would recommend it to other pro photographers.

This kit is small and compact. I use it for fill lighting when the hard flash is just too artificial.

The units are great as are all Westcott products. However, my package was missing the small 6x7" diffuser. Adoramatv was going to check the warehouse and let me know. This was 5 days ago and no answer. In the interim, I''ve called Westcott and hot an answer immediately. They ae replacing the missing unit.
