FAQs
Does this softbox come with a speedring?
No, the speedring is sold separately and must be chosen based on your specific lighting system.
Can I remove the internal diffusers?
Yes, the softbox includes two removable internal diffusers, allowing you to customize the softness and contrast of your light.
Is this softbox suitable for outdoor use?
While it can be used outdoors in controlled environments, its size makes it susceptible to wind. It is primarily designed for indoor studio use.
What is the primary benefit of the square shape?
The square shape provides a versatile, natural-looking catchlight in subjects' eyes and provides an even spread of light that works well for both people and objects.
How do I store the softbox when not in use?
It is recommended to disassemble the softbox and store it in its carrying case to protect the fabric and internal rods from damage.
Troubleshooting
The softbox will not attach to the flash head.
Ensure that you have purchased the correct speedring adapter compatible with your specific Broncolor strobe head.
Light appears uneven or has hotspots.
Verify that both internal diffusers are properly attached and centered within the softbox housing.
Assembly feels difficult or stiff.
Ensure all four rods are fully seated into the speedring and check that the fabric corners are aligned correctly before tensioning.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin, ensure you have the correct Broncolor-compatible speedring adapter for your specific light head. Attach the rods into the speedring slots and secure the fabric shell. Once assembled, mount the softbox to your light stand using a heavy-duty grip head or dedicated mount. For maintenance, keep the interior material free of dust with a soft, dry cloth. When not in use, disassemble the unit and store it in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture buildup in the fabric. If the diffusers become soiled, they can typically be cleaned with a damp, mild-soap cloth, though they should be air-dried completely before being reinstalled.
