How is the soft box attached to the whole set-up?<BR/><BR/>I clearly see that the strobe is attached to the ring with a Justin clamp.<BR/><BR/>But what is it that is holding up the soft box..??<BR/><BR/>Thanks!<BR/><BR/>Viviansatisfactionsellinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18213262584478708054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20182596.post-23219496267384714222008-12-09T15:54:00.000-07:002008-12-09T15:54:00.000-07:00another photog.

Use your wrist to angle the posts to the angle the hole is drilled. I put my thumb on the post near the ring and flex the pole to match the angle the hole was drilled.

I have a 30x30" softbox belonging to a multiblitz monohead, I use it with my strobes but no way to easily fit on a stand (always difficult, fragile setups with clamps). Your post opened my eyes and I just drilled a hole in the speedring and attached a spigot that comes with the superclamp...tatata perfectmatch to put on an umbrella adapter. I send you some pics 2 morrow if you like (or put em on my blog if thats easier)<BR/><BR/>Thanks man I am off to the sack, have a nice day<BR/>VincentVincenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07156230998715424746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20182596.post-55826444864726435602008-12-09T15:15:00.000-07:002008-12-09T15:15:00.000-07:00Thanks for sharing, David.A couple of somewhat rel...Thanks for sharing, David.<BR/><BR/>A couple of somewhat related questions.<BR/><BR/>1. What's the largest softbox you can fill with a single strobe such as the SB-800?<BR/><BR/>2. What's the trick to getting the softbox off of that type of speed ring? Currently I have to beat mine with a rubber mallet - heh.<BR/><BR/>Thanksanother photoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16975355364307103374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20182596.post-78974323034397958872008-12-09T15:09:00.000-07:002008-12-09T15:09:00.000-07:00Thanks David,The speed ring is by Photoflex.

It comes along in a kit with their extra small softbox. <BR/><BR/>Now if Canon only had as good a flash system as Nikon... a guy can dream, right?<BR/><BR/>Happy holidays.Terryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08688072889670646685noreply@blogger.com
