Do you need to barn doors to install this softbox on the gemini? And is this a 2'x 3' softbox or smaller?
Asked by: Chris
I think the other answers here are confusing this for the "Small" (actually larger) pop bank. Description here says 14.5"x14.5" and looking at the photo it's obviously not 2'x3'

Will this work on the Lupo Superpanel 60?

Will this work on the Lupo Superpanel 60?
Asked by: Anh Minh
The Chimera 1629 POP Bank for 2x1 LED Fixtures (B&H# CH1629) was made specifically for the Litepanels Gemini 2x1 LED panel. It fits on the barn doors for the Gemini 2x1 LED panel. The Gemini is slightly shorter than the Superpanel 60 (12.5" vs. 13.4") but the straps will stretch to fit the Superpanel 60, too, so it will be able to hold on to either. Alternatively, this softbox was made specifically for the Superpanel 60 and would thus offer the best fit: Lupo Snapbag Softbox for Superpanel 60 (B&H# LU432) https://bhpho.to/2YzqeBP

The photos on the BH website show a frame that slides into the fixture. Does this actually use a frame or only elastic corners and velcro straps?
Asked by: Joel
The Chimera POP Bank for the Vortex8 LED Light would offer a frame that slides into the channels on the front of the light then accept the rods from the softbox.
