Remember the Essentials
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.
The Westcott Strip Softbox with Silver Interior is made of quality fabrics and is now available with a silver interior. Rods are metal - no fiberglass to break. Around the light, the fitted collar is made of heat retardant material. This softbox may be used with strobes or with "hot" lights up to 1000W. The Strip Bank comes with two removable inner baffles. One is solid white and will give the effect of having a "hot spot" in the center. The other baffle is white with a silver circular center. The silver circular center is used to bounce the light off the back of the unit causing much more even light.
Required Speed (mounting) Rings are available separately for your light fixture.
- Use this size for dramatic edge-lighting, or for a soft hair light for small group of people.
- An optional Accessory Kit is available and contains a circular face mask, two strip light panels and four gold/white panels, which allow instant interior color change.

Good value. Light is soft and directed. Better with egg crate, but still decent without.

Perfect as an accent/hair light. Use the matching Westcott egg crate for perfect control over directing the light.

Comments about Westcott Strip Softbox with Silver Interior:
I use the softbox with my Canon 580 EXII flash - it makes a great, portable portrait light (so far, I've been using at 1/8 power). When mounting the flash, I position the hotshoe bracket so there is "line of sight" to my transmitter (the base of the flash is mounted sideways relative to the softbox). I turn the flash head facing into the softbox and I'm able to use a wireless setup w/o using pocket wizards. I purchased a chimera speedring (for hotshoe flash) to use with the hotbox rather than the Westcott speedring/bracket combo, which retails for over $300.
This setup is so lightweight, that in conditions where there is limited space for tripods and lightstands, this light can be easily hand-held.

Comments about Westcott Strip Softbox with Silver Interior:
I originally planned to use this Softbox in conjunction with my TD-5 Lights, and position it above my background, facing forward as a hairlight. However, the main stobe overpowers that setup, so I'll need to put another strobe in place of the TD-5 to use in that configuration.
The TD-5/Strip Softbox combination can still be effective when placed directly above and slightly behind the subject.
The unit sets up and breaks down quickly and easily, and comes with a convenient carrying pouch.
