Aha! You got it--can't wait to see what you do with it. 

 

Hurry hurry! ;)

 

(Sorry--I'll try to be patient. I've been curious ever since you said you were getting one.)

Lastolite's light modifiers work very well, and for a long time as they are well made from good material.

I've never had the Ezybox speedlite as I seldom use flash on-camera and prefer the 38 cm Ezybox hotshoe on a stand instead.

If the transport bag has a zipper it might be worth inspecting the stitching and, if necessary make some extra stitches if it looks like the fabric is trimmed a bit close. If it starts to go, repairs are very much harder than prevention.

Thanks Peter, I've given the velcro straps a couple of stitches as they were pulling around the edges. Also did the same with the zip on the bag just in case.

Apart from those issues, it's a very well made product. cant wait to try it out

definatley an accessory I've been looking at getting myself.

 

I've been running a two light setup with my SB700's, one for a rim light and the other on an umbrella as a main light. been thinking of adding another 700 and this softbox as a catch light. Very interested to see what kind of light this provides for you.

Unfortunately I've not had the chance to use it yet, very frustrating. As soon as I have some pics I'll post them.
