SmallRig RA-L65 Lantern Softbox Quick Release-One Step, 26in Light Modifier with Fabric Barn Doors, Softbox Diffuser for SmallRig Video Light 120B, 120D, 220B, 220D and Other Bowens Mount Light-3754

This is a unique light modifier that is a new addition to my equipment. Its omni directional so it really works well for fill light and to raise the overall ambient light of the room you are working in. Its very easy to assemble and attach to your Bowens type mount, and it feels durable and well made. The fabric barn doors offer very unique creative opportunities, I love dramatic and surreal lighting in my work and I think this modifier will fit into my collection well.

These are a must-have for your SmallRig lights!

This light diffuser is well built and very easy to deploy: push down on the unit and watch through the round light mount ring as you hook the central looping brace to the two large, flat hooks at the bottom of the unit. The manual says this takes three seconds, which is about right.

Adding on to my collection of Bowens mount light modifiers, this lantern attachment is a handy piece of gear to have, offering a nice soft, diffused light source. I like how quickly and easily this sets up, literally taking seconds to go from being in the bag to ready to place on a light.

This is a lantern/globe style softbox that will cast a nice even glow into the entire room with no harsh shadows. At 26 inches this is a pretty common size for a lantern, you can find bigger ones but you most often see them this size. Being globe shaped the light basically goes everywhere filling all the nooks and crannies of the room with an even light. They also include a large shade you can attach to the light to limit the spread, similarly to barn doors. There are lots of velcro attach points all around the globe so you should be able to get whatever blocking effect you want, including covering the globe all the way around so the light only goes straight down.

I used this product recently on a film shoot and it is a well made and easy to assemble lantern. With its bowens mount it can accompany many fixtures in film and television lighting.

Easy to set up, easy to break down.

This product is of great quality and sturdy. Comes in nice packaging. I am a professional photographer and i can tell the light output quality and diffusion is really good.
