Reduce the harshness of your on-camera flash unit and soften shadows by equipping it with this medium Vello Octa Softbox for Flash, Medium 8"from Vello, which measures 8" in diameter. This convenient modifier produces a soft, almost wrap-around quality of light that is useful in a wide variety of situations, such portraiture, weddings, food, and more. Along with this, the octagonal shape will produce circular catchlights that are very pleasing to the eyes. It also features a foldable inner diffuser for further softening of the light and a reflective silver interior that evenly distributes light while maintaining maximum light output.

Setting up the softbox is simple with an integrated elastic strap with a touch tab fastener that secures around the flash head. Also, it has a strap loop and rubberized mounting tabs that will ensure that the softbox remains securely attached. When not in use, the modifier will fold down flat, and a zippered carrying case is included for travel and storage.

Q: 5. I'm interested in purchasing the 8 Octa softbox to use with my Nikon SB-700 flash. Does the softbox have any sort of frame inside that keeps its shape or does it collapse into itself? Does it diminish the power level of the flash a lot?

A: This 8 octal soft box does not have any internal support and this causes it to sag a bit since the only thing supporting it is the velcro that closes the strap around the back collar where the soft box attaches to the flat. This could be fixed by adding some velcro to the softball and flash to provide some additional support. I have not tried to do this. You can expect to loose about 2 stops of light to the box, which is about normal since you are diffusing the light by bouncing it around the inside of the soft box. Having made these comments, this soft box does provide a very nice smooth (not harsh) light and creates a beautiful round catchlight in the subjects eyes.
