Angler Quick-Open Deep Parabolic Softbox V2 (48")
Key Features
  • For Bowens Mount Flash Heads/Monolights
  • Improved Quick Open & Release Mechanism
  • Highly Reflective Silver Interior
  • Support Rods Snap into Place
Ideal for portrait, product, fashion photography, and more, the redesigned Angler Quick-Open Deep Parabolic V2 Softbox measures 48" and features integrated locking rods that quickly lift and snap into place so you're ready to shoot in a fraction of the time it takes to set up a conventional softbox. The softbox has an improved release mechanism that employs easy-to-push levers to close the softbox easily in seconds. While the 16-sided shape of the softbox imparts a wraparound light quality, its depth gives it a somewhat sharp falloff that makes feathering and directional control easy. For further directional control, an optional fabric grid is available to narrow the beam and minimize light spill. Other handy features include a silver interior to maximize output for a dramatic and punchy light, and removable front and inner diffusers, so you can regulate the softness and contrast that's perfect for your exposure. The softbox comes with a 144mm Bowens-type speed ring.
