          This works just fine for us in our studio. It functions as it supposed to with our other equipment. So far, nothing bad about it.

            I use this Item as a Location Key Light. Love its portability and easy set up. hard Crinkled silver interior and double baffle are great. Adapting ring connector not so reliable due to its connecting locking mechanism for Profoto.

            Comments about Elinchrom 39" Mini Octa Lite Bank Softbox:

            The setup is easy and the product is very well constructed. It attaches firmly and securely to Profoto strobe with optional ring adapter B&H# ELPA .

            Do not use any other adapters especially B&H # ELOMA, since they do not work.

            The quality of light is superb. No comparison with an umbrella.

            Disassembling is a bit more difficult than I expected, but this is the only minor fault.

            Best product and best price!

              Comments about Elinchrom 39" Mini Octa Lite Bank Softbox:

              Overall, this Elinchrom octa bank is great. The setup is a snap and the product is well constructed. While I have only owned it for a few weeks, I can see it lasting a long time. It seems very well constructed.

              The integrated speedring design is awesome. Just a couple quick snaps and it is ready go. Tear down takes a little longer, but it is still quick. Overall, certainly better than standard octa and speedring.

              The manual does leave a little to be desired, but it is still easy to figure out. Also, it is not one-handed setup. While still easy, it is not as fast as you would think. In either case, it assembles in just 30 seconds or less. Tear down is about the same.

                Bought this along with the 600RX monolight kit by Elinchrom. Have owned other softboxes, including photoflex, lastlolite, etc., and these just exude quality. Very easy to put together. Great consistent quality of light. Comes with high quality carrying bag also.

                Highly recommended.

                    This is a replacement for an older version of the octa lite bank. This softbox works well in many situations, including smaller settings where space is a premium. It produces a great quality of light, and the two diffusers add for some flexibility. The round catch-light in the eyes is also a nice bonus, and the fact that it folds up like an umbrella is helpful for a quick setup. Definitely a must-have for any serious photographer.

                    I purchased this softbox to provide a main light for an upcoming event (Breakfast with Santa) where I was taking lots of pictures of children. I am quite satisfied with this softbox. I had purchased the 53" and thought it was too difficult to setup, while the 39" was much easier. I needed a portable softbox for remote work. All I can say is its exceptional.
