A speed ring is required and not included with this unit. Remember to get the best type of speed ring for the light you are using. If you plan on using it with multiple lights we recommend the adjustable speed ring.
The Small Video Pro Plus is designed for use with a hotlight but may also be used with flash. With fabric intended for the heat of a continuous light, the Small Video Pro Plus with silver interior is ideal for work where maximum softening of the light is desired.
The "Plus" designation of this softbox means the front face of the softbox is removable. Chimera makes different strengths of diffusion material for front face applications. This softbox comes with 3 diffuser fronts. These will allow more light transmission and help to make the light more specular, or "less soft."
This softbox also has a built in "lip" around the edges to help control light spill. This lip also facilitates the atachment of optional honeycomb grids, fabric grids, and louvers.

If you are a true professional, any other softbox simply won't do. Simple as that. These things last forever. Excellent construction, easy to assemble.

Comments about Chimera Video Pro Plus Softbox - Small:
I use the Chimera's with Mole Richardson 1 K 407's. I used to use soft boxes designed for strobe which, of course, did not at all like the heat generated from the quartz lights. These chimera's have a very flexible way of venting the hot air from just about every direction so you can control any light leaks. The reflective surface inside the boxes are also top notch. It comes with three different levels of diffusion. I highly recommend the product.

Chimera makes high quality products that are worth the extra $. They are the industry standard. Removable fronts on a soft box are essential. The included storage bag helps keep all the fronts with the box. Not all Chimera boxes have removable fronts so make sure you get a "Plus 3"
