The Impact Universal Filter Holder is an ideal accessory for achieving diffusion, color correction or special color effects with any light, whether it's quartz, HMI, photoflood or flash. It can also hold polarizing filters or gobos. Using a grip-like mount, it clamps onto the riser of most light stands and adjusts to various distances in front of the light via its 3-section, 16" adjustable arm.

Comments about Impact Universal Filter Holder - 12x12" (30.5 x 30.5 cm):
This is a great product for using gels and diffusion. It allows you to easily position your gel or diffusion with out worrying about the material being damaged by hot tungsten lights. For instance, I've had many instance where I've put a gel, using c-47s, on the barn doors of hot tungsten lights, and have had damaged gels after the shot. This product prevents that. The only problem is that it only works for certain shot scales. The frame isn't extremely large so if you try and open the barn doors of a light so it spills past the width of the frame, it'll cause a shadow in the frame. If the frame were bigger I would be more satisfied with the product. Overall this is a nifty product that'll help you paint pictures the way you want to.

Works great for holding 12x12 filters in front of my strobes. I only gave four stars because they are a little odd to connect and adjust. But once you get the hang of it, there's no problem.

I'm using the filter holders in combination with some lights that would otherwise require proprietary hardware. They are performing beautifully. Only problem,they are on the pricey side.

I needed another set of hands for flags, reflectors, and gobos (and filters). This is it! This is a indispensable tool in my studio. It is fast and easy to use and no more running around trying to rig something up. Almost as good as a VAL.
