| Direct Flash | SoftBox III |
Warranty: Unconditionally Guaranteed Since 1987
Description: The SoftBox III is roughly twice the size of our original SoftBox, and approximately 20 times the size of the flash head itself, thereby producing considerably softer shadows. Like the original SoftBox (LQ-107), the SoftBox III is center weighted.
Application: To produce the softest possible shadows from a SoftBox capable of on-camera use.
Compatibility: Unless otherwise noted, all LumiQuest accessories fit most standard bounce flashes. If in doubt, email us. Note: The unit is large enough to block autofocus assist and interfere with auto exposure UNLESS you are using TTL metering.
Attachment: Self-adhesive Velcro® is included with all LumiQuest products however, if you'd prefer not to use that you may purchase the optional UltraStrap.
Approximate Light Loss: 1 1⁄4 stops
Dimensions: Folds flat to 8” x 9”

Used this just the other day for on location 7month old outdoor shoot. Attaches securely with strap to Speedlite. Placed it on stand for off camera flash and used Nikon SB800. Set up in minutes. A great item when you do not want to get too fancy and have quick set up. Light is soft and had NO retouch on skin at all with exception of sharpening eyes. Love it!

I also found out about these softboxes form the Strobist blog, and now I know why he uses them all the time! I often use two of them to create nice rim light around my subjects. They fold flat, so I have them with me all the time.
Highly recommended product.
