Purchased two of these along with the Astraโs and they work great! Iโve used Chimeraโs for a couple of decades with various lights and love them, too. But, I find that these set up as fast and are of the same quality as the Chimeraโs. The first time using them, it did take a bit to get them situated correctly. But now, I can attach them in less than 30 seconds (not counting the front defusion). I like the fact that you donโt need a speed ring, and they fold up fast. They are worth the extra money and will last as long as anything else out there.

The case that enclosed this item was scratched and obviously thrown around, the inside wasnt all that great either.ย The foam inside was cut and ripped out of place, and there were a few scratches on the back of the lights which lead me to believe that theyve been dropped by their previous owners.ย One of the stands was broken, so I ended up having to purchase an additional light stand to replace the broken one.ย Overall, I dont think this item was priced appropriately for the condition it was in.ย Ive been dedicated to B&H to purchase all my cameras and most of my equipment, but I think Ill likely be finding another supplier for my business needs.
Quality diffuser

The Snapbag is well built, installs quickly, packs down flat, and does a fine job diffusing your light. Could it be bigger? Yeah, maybe, but for it's size, it does an excellent job.
Absurdly overpriced and poorly fitted

Besides the poor quality that you will recognize straight from pulling it out of the box, the fit is almost impossible without another person helping. Even then, we still couldn't get it to safely fit the Astra 1x1. The only thing that mounts the softbox to the light are 4 elastic bands that are supposedly designed to wrap around the corners of the light, which have almost rounded smooth corners. One of my straps came barely threaded, so there's no way these can last very long. It is boxed back up and on its way back to B&H.
Does an OK job - Install is THE WORST

Don't let the reviews fool you: (1) It's very expensive for what it is. (2) Putting it on is a 2 person job. There are no screws/knobs on the actual litepanel for the 4 corner straps, so you have to really work it to get/keep it on. Someone at Litepanels prove me wrong.
Crazy how expensive it is, but it does a great job diffusing

At first I wasn't sure about spending this much on a diffuser, but after a few shoots I noticed the light being much more pleasing and softer than when I used diffusion sheets over the light. Helped with interviews and people who have highly reflective/shiny skin. Also it's super easy to setup and packs away neatly.

Will this work with the Luxli Timpani?
Will this work with the Luxli Timpani?
It actually does fit. While it may not have been designed by Luxli, or for the Timpani itself, and although its a very, very tight fit, it will work. I use it in a studio setting where we dont need to take it off and on often, and for those circumstances, its a dream.

Can this be fitted to an original litepanels 1x1?
Hi Erin - I was a bit too quick on the above reply - the Snapbag Softbox is designed to fit the Astra 1x1, but it actually does fit the original Litepanels 1x1 as well. Sorry for the confusion.
