LumiQuest (LQ-121) Suporte de Gel Compacto FXtra com 8 Géis Rosco

Comments about LumiQuest (LQ-121) FXtra Compact Gel Holder with 8 Rosco Gels:

Simple product. Not sure if I would purchase again. The product seemed like a good idea at the time of purchase. However, if you are on a tight budget I think I would pass on this one. The product works as advertised. Basically it just holds a gel over your flash head. Looks good. Getting the gels into and out of the sleeve can be difficult and maybe a pain if trying to work quickly.

Attaches to my Canon 580EXII easily and puts the gel right where it's needed. The gels provided may be all you'll ever need. Good value.

I wish it was less bulky and didn't have too attach to with velcro

Nice add-on. A little flimsy made.

Comments about LumiQuest (LQ-121) FXtra Compact Gel Holder with 8 Rosco Gels:

No more taping gels to my SB-800s. This compact gel holder makes mounting gels easy, quick and secure. I always thought that stopping to scotch tape gels to my SB-800s in the middle of a photo shoot was a rather hack (and time-consuming) thing to do. No more. Using the LumiQuest gel holder is the way to go.

Good design, so-so material

I am giving this product 5 stars since it does what it advertises and is made well. Overall its just what it looks like... a piece of plastic that holds thin plastic "gels" over your flash head. I got this as a Christmas gift after sticking it on my B&H wishlist. I figured if I got it as a gift and didn't like it... no harm no foul. As it turns out I love it and plan to use it all the time. No more tape on my gels and cleaning off the adhesive on my strobes. I am using this on my SB600 for now.

Perfect for the strobist kit for mounting to speedlights. A little difficult and slightly time consuming to quickly change gels in the main part, but once it is setup, it is slick to use.

I bought it to use with a Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX3. It works perfectly in TTL mode on the camera. The FL-36R also has an optical slave mode that allows you to trigger it with a pop up flash, allowing manual wireless mode with any camera with a flash. You have to set the flash power through trial-n-error, use the camera's LCD to check exposure. Turning on your highlight clipping "blinkies" helps when it is too bright out to get a good look at the LCD.

The FXtra fit the Canon 580EX II prefect, nice to have a slot that I can store my other gels in . Also works very well with the LumiQuest 80/20 bounce .

Comments about LumiQuest (LQ-121) FXtra Compact Gel Holder with 8 Rosco Gels:

This is real handy for not only mounting colored gel filters on my flash head, but also for storing the gels when they are not being used. This unit mounts easily on the flash head, and one slot stores the different colored filters while another slot holds the gel(s) you are using in front of the flash head.

Comments about LumiQuest (LQ-121) FXtra Compact Gel Holder with 8 Rosco Gels:

Its a simple, straightfoward device that is easy to use and low profile to store. The gels provided are a good foundation for those just starting with color modification.

Comments about LumiQuest (LQ-121) FXtra Compact Gel Holder with 8 Rosco Gels:

Provides some versatility for my speedlites. I wish it were a smoother fit, especially for my 580EX II. It fits better on my 430EX II but still not a perfect fit. The gels work really well for balancing ambient light and flash and providing some color where needed.

Works very well! Nice to know that it will work with all Lumiquest accessories as well.

Some fitment issues, but all in all it works pretty darn good!

Comments about LumiQuest (LQ-121) FXtra Compact Gel Holder with 8 Rosco Gels:

In general, I like Lumiquest products but this one needs work. I use it on a Canon 580 and it is a tight fit (will be too tight on Mk2) but the real problem is that the sleeves and gels are too flexible. It is frustrating trying to insert a gel into a sleeve that is bending and tight. You need to take the thing off the flash to insert it. Would be much better if the sleeves were stiff and the gels were thicker. Once in place it works fine and stores flat in a bag pocket.
