Products may be branded as either Lastolite By Manfrotto or Manfrotto. The product itself is identical regardless of the branding displayed.
The 'Large' designation typically refers to its significant diffusion surface area, providing a broad light source. Specific dimensions are usually found in the detailed product specifications.
You will likely need a speed ring adapter compatible with your specific light source. If using a standard camera flashgun, a bracket or adapter for mounting it to the speed ring is also necessary.
Optional grid accessories are available for the Ezybox Pro Octa Large, which can be attached to control light spill and create a more directional beam.
The octagonal shape of the modifier results in distinct octagonal catchlights in the subject's eyes, a desirable effect for portraiture.
Yes, provided the LED light can be mounted securely to the modifier's speed ring and does not exceed the heat limitations of the diffusion material.
Ensure each rod is fully inserted into its designated socket on the speed ring and the outer frame. Check for any obstructions.
Verify you are using the correct speed ring adapter for your specific light source. Some flashguns require a separate bracket for secure attachment.
Check that the diffusion panel is correctly and evenly attached to the frame. Ensure the light source is centered within the modifier.
Setup: The Ezybox Pro Octa Large unfolds and assembles quickly, utilizing a rod system similar to a traditional umbrella. Ensure all rods are securely seated in their respective mounts. Attach the speed ring adapter (if not already integrated) to your specific light source or flash head.
Compatibility: This modifier is designed to accept standard studio flashes and Elinchrom Ranger Quadra units. For mounting common camera flashguns (speedlights), an appropriate adapter or bracket (often sold separately) is typically required. Always check the specific mounting requirements for your flash.
Care: To clean the diffusion fabric, use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents. Store the Ezybox Pro Octa Large flat or rolled loosely to prevent creasing the diffusion material. Ensure it is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew.
