[1.2 lb] I am using this Chimera light bank on a Manfrotto Spectra 1'x1' LED. It is easy to put on, folds down quickly, and really helps to turn the light into a soft beautiful source. Price is reasonable for such a high quality product. 5

[8] LEDs have a pretty nasty look on peoples skin. Plus the light goes eveywhere. This little box truly unlocks the potential of 1x1 Litepanels. 5

[Aluminum] Well built and work as advertised. Nice quality of light. 5

[1.2 lb] Its easy to put on and take off the diffusion works and gives a much nicer softer light. 5

[Strip] Know that the Rotolight barn doors are necessary to use this. It is not at first obvious that the barn door wings slip into almost invisible pockets that are built into the Chimera. A simple installation note would have been a time-saver. Pleasing quality of light. It would be nice if the Rotolight carry-pouch was big enough to include the barn doors and Chimera folded up. 5

[Strip] Five stars because it's a Chimera and it does what it's supposed to do. It also comes with three different diffusion covers so you have some options. But unlike the classic Chimera that has a frame, hooks into a speed ring, and can go on any light that accepts rings or scrims, this seems like it will only work on the Ikan 576s. There's no frame; it slides over the barn doors of the fixture and uses the built-in gel clips to secure itself in front of the LED bulbs. So if you have a different budget LED light of a similar size and you want this to work it will take some gaff taping. Maybe Chimera has a model for everything. I don't know; I haven't looked. 5

[1.2 lb] Very effective soft box for the Rotolight NEO - be aware that you need to have the NEO barn doors in order to mount this. 5

[Aluminum] Actually used on Socanland 12x12 Bicolor. Fit like a champ. Far more efficient than clipping diffusion to barn doors. Get it! 5

Nigel	12/05/2024
[Strip] So far so good ....... gonna try it on an ephoto 1x1 as well and see what happens..... but it softens lights just how i like it 5

[8] We have tried to build our own Snoots for the 1x1 in the past. Nothing compares to this product for fit, durability and ease of use. If you have a 1x1 LitePanel and need to control the spill this product is well worth the money spent. 5
