This 18 x 24" Open-End Flag Kit from Kupo is designed to be used handheld or supported with grip heads for various light modifications. The frames of the flags feature stainless steel construction and an integrated handle, and the open-end construction is favored by those who want a more gradual effect without shadows.
The kit includes six varieties of flags for various light manipulation requirements. Two black net scrims reduce the intensity of light that falls on a subject; a single net will reduce illumination by one-half stop, while a double net will decrease the light by a full stop. Black nets are preferred when controlling light and reducing ambient bounce, but this can be reintroduced by opting to use the included white scrims instead. For a fixture that is casting too hard of shadows for your frame, the two grades of diffusion silk soften the light and give an overall smoother effect. All of these scrims are built in the same fashion, with a steel 3/8" pin for rigging to standard grip hardware and a single open end to prevent the unintentional casting of shadows while modifying lights.

Good Stuff

Good kit. Note- doesn’t come with a solid.
I can fit 2x solids in there in addition to the included nets. Case feels like it will last. Would’ve been nice to have a kit that’s just black nets, but both sizes (2x3 and 18x24), but white nets are cool too.
They are the same quality as the big boys, without the high cost. Check out the YouTube channel Gaffer and Gear for a detailed review.
Great quality but no solid

Don't bother with the Impact flag kits. They are cheaply made and I have seen several tear or come back from rentals damaged. Matthews is a good option, but is expensive. This Kupo kit is awesome. All the nets are built great and the bag it comes with is very sturdy. I do have two things that I don't like, though. The first is that I wish I could buy the kit without the bag. Again, the bag is great and built very well, but, like many people who will put these in a truck, I am going to be putting these in a flag box, so I would've liked to save a bit of cash by buying without the bag. No big deal, though. The second is that I really wish this would have come with a solid. I realized that there was no solid included when I purchased, but it would be easy for someone to mistakenly think a solid is included because there is one in the pictures. Again, not a huge deal, but I would definitely have been willing to pay more if a solid was included. All in all, it's a great product that feels sturdy and that I suspect will last for many years.
