This lightweight and foldable softbox is compatible with SmallRig RC 120D/RC 120B/RC 220D/RC220B and other Bowens mount lights. In this review, I'll break down the details of the SmallRig Parabolic Softbox Quick Release and explain why it's a great option for photographers.

Quick Release Design & Lightweight and Foldable

The SmallRig Parabolic Softbox Quick Release is designed to be easy to install and remove, thanks to its original developed quick-release structure. You can set up or take down the softbox in just 15 seconds, making it a great option for photographers who frequently work in different locations. Additionally, the softbox is foldable, making it easy to store and transport. It weighs only 1.1 kg and comes with a storage bag for even more convenient portability.

Enhancing the Shooting Effect

One of the main benefits of using a softbox is to improve the quality of the light in your shots. The SmallRig Parabolic Softbox achieves this with its two-layer cloth structure made of Oxford cloth and high-grade reflective materials. The multi-layer coating is durable and reflective while also maintaining the original color temperature and color rendering index (CRI). With this softbox, the light is spread evenly and more widely, improving your shooting results.

High Durability

The SmallRig Parabolic Softbox is supported by 16 ribs that form a rounded surface for a specific depth of surface effect, creating a sleek look in your photos. It adopts military umbrella ribs, which are lightweight and durable with high elasticity. These ribs can withstand tens of thousands of presses without deformation, ensuring that the softbox will last you a long time. Additionally, all the ribs of the umbrella are attached to the outside for a smoother and more uniform coating effect on the inside. This doesn't affect the reflected light function inside, making it a great option for photographers who need consistent lighting.

Adjustable Light Direction

SmallRig Parabolic Softbox comes with 2 pieces of high-quality diffuser cloth and 1 piece of fabric mesh, allowing you to adjust the beam angle concentration at 45°. You can freely combine these pieces according to your shooting needs, playing a positive role in various situations. For example, it can be effectively applied to portrait photography, studio photography, LED video light photography, flash photography, etc.

Wide Compatibility and Package Includes

The SmallRig Parabolic Softbox Quick Release is not only compatible with SmallRig video lights (RC 120D/RC 120B/RC 220D/RC 220B), but also other Bowens mount standard LED lights, COB lights, and video lights.

It comes with a package that includes 1 x Softbox, 1 x Honeycomb, 1 x Internal Diffusion, 1 x External Diffusion, 1 x Carry Bag, and 1 x User Manual.
