Product Information
Full details
The Broncolor Soft Grid for the 150cm Octabox is an essential modifier for portrait, fashion, and commercial photographers who require precise control over light direction and spill. By narrowing the beam spread, this tool allows you to isolate subjects or create dramatic lighting atmospheres with ease, though its fabric construction requires careful handling to prevent potential deformation over time.

FAQs
Is this grid compatible with other 150cm octabox brands?
This grid is specifically engineered for the Broncolor 150cm Octabox and may not fit securely on other brands.
Does the grid affect the color temperature of the light?
No, the high-quality fabric is neutral and will not alter the color temperature of your flash.
How should I store the grid to prevent damage?
Store the grid in a cool, dry place within its case, ensuring it is not crushed under heavy equipment.
Can I use the grid with the Octabox front diffuser attached?
Yes, the soft grid is designed to be attached over the front diffuser of the Octabox.
What is the primary benefit of using a soft grid?
The primary benefit is directional control, allowing you to limit light spill and create more contrasty, dramatic lighting.
Troubleshooting
Grid feels loose or sags on the Octabox
Ensure all attachment points are fully secured and the fabric is evenly stretched across the front diffuser.
Light is not hitting the subject as expected
Verify that the grid is oriented correctly and that the Octabox is positioned at the intended angle relative to the subject.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The Broncolor Soft Grid is designed exclusively for the 150cm (59.05") Octabox. To set up, unfold the grid and align the edges with the perimeter of the Octabox. Secure the attachment points firmly to ensure no light leaks from the sides. When not in use, store the grid in its provided carry bag to maintain its shape. Avoid folding it tightly; if the grid becomes wrinkled, store it flat or lay it out on the Octabox for several minutes to allow the fabric to smooth out naturally. Do not clean with harsh chemicals; a light dusting or spot cleaning with a slightly damp cloth is sufficient.
