The small Chimera Pro II Softbox 24x32" for Flashis designed for use with a strobe. With fabric not intended for the heat of a continuous light, the PRO II comes standard with a white interior and a flush front face. It is quick to set up and break down. The flush-mounted front face provides a wider spread of light than a box with a recessed front.

The PRO II is an excellent choice for the photographer concerned about setup time. Its sewn-in front face allows it to be set up in less than 30 seconds.

[Yes, Removable] The quality of light is superb. The face is not removable, you can not use a grid. 5

Terry	25/09/2024
[White] For my purposes I actually prefer these least expensive Chimera softboxes because the front diffusion panel is flush to the edges. The black rim created by the recessed panels of the Super Pros just make things more difficult for me shooting products and food. They also transmit almost two stops more light from the same head without the baffle installed and a stop more with the baffle installed, even though they are all white inside. Theyre simpler to assemble also, with the front diffuser permanently attached. 5

[White] Nice sturdy and well made. 5

[White] Well constructed and durable materials. Should last a long time. Easy to set-up & strike. Puts out a nice soft broad light in a smaller range relative to its size. 5

Jeff	26/08/2024
[White] Excellent quality of light for portraits both in the studio and on location. Excellent highlight to shadow transitions. 5

James	21/08/2024
[White] Chimera call this their medium Pro Softbox but I consider 3ft X 4 ft to be pretty darn big. Great light (quality), very light (weight). 5

anyonymous	01/08/2024
[White] The Chimera Pro II Softbox I use in my main light and gives me excellent clarity and smoothness in the subject. Never before experienced a light Avia so cute in my photo studio. 5

Wayne	14/07/2024
[White] Easy to fold and setup soft light quality. 5

curt	04/07/2024
[White] I use the pro 11 with norman flash heads and they work well them as I can rotate the bank light .The pro11 gives off a nice soft light. 5

Mike	03/07/2024
[White] I use this box on location and in studio. It gives a soft broad light, and folds up fairly small in its own case (it's smaller when broken down than the medium Chimera box). This versions does not have a removable front, although the inner baffle will come out if you want. A great product, as with all Chimera boxes I've tried. 5
