[Yes] When you need the control and don’t want to waste time with lots of flags this is just the ticket, fast and easy good price too .

[Yes] I've been using a pair of these with Astera Titan's - SNAPGRID does make a version that fits those tubes more appropriately but I do like the fact that I can use them with quasars and kino flo tubes if I wanted to.


I also have two Honeycrates that are made specifically for the Astera Titans - they too are great! Now, I actually prefer each for different reasons. With the SNAPGRID if feels much more rigid and the dividers keep their shape better. I have to do a test to be sure, but I felt like the SNAPGRID, because of it's better rigidity, helped to keep exposure levels higher.


This could entirely be in my mind, only doing a meter test will reveal - but the Honeycrates felt a little more loose.

[Yes] This light is super impressive, the RGB colors are very pure and the flexibility with white balance is very very useful when working with mixed lighting on location. The app is pretty good, but the on-screen controls are so well implemented I usually just adjust things there. Yeah it's pricier than budget lights but the quality of the output and flexibility is very valuable. The design may also not please everyone (I love it), but it seems incredibly durable and a good balance of discreet and eye-catching. The only weaknesses I found were how bulky the protective case is, and the effects were not as extensive or impressive as some other brands (though, that seems pretty clearly not really the point of this light).


Huge kudos as well to the Kelvin support team. I purchased mine used here on B&H and a the previous owner had removed and disassembled a part and stuck it in a bag. Kelvin support were not only willing to send me detailed instructions on how to fix it, but even mailed some replacement pins at no cost to me. Amazing support, very confidence inspiring!


It's definitely a bit of a jump to pick this over other lights, especially when cheaper and more powerful options are available. However, if you like the idea of buy once and the design and durability appeal to you as they did to me, this might the perfect light.

[Yes] This is a must have for the Snapgrid Octa box. I’ve fit it several times and the grid is always about 1-2 inches too big. It still works just fine, but not sure if it was measured wrong. Cuts spill light by 40 degrees. Works great!!

[Yes] Very high quality product, comes with a nice case and is the perfect grid diffuser for my tubes

[Foldable] Great quality! It's seems pricey, but it's totally worth it.

[Yes] Just as durable as the Litepanels brand. Thanks to the B&H team for pointing me in the right direction

[Foldable] Really nice grid for a 4’x4’ frame. Attaches well by the corners and does what it’s suppose to in controlling light. Really looking forward to using this tool more over the year.

[Foldable] I'd held off buying one of these because they are so pricey - by the time you've added the modifiers an Astra is an expensive light. But it's a really great way of controlling spill and I'm happy I got it eventually. Stays in the kit box!
