Worth Every Penny
I have the medium 3.5 x 6.5 lastolite skylite as well as the small 3.5 x 3.5 lastolite skylight. Neither of which did not come with a crossbar handle. It is an accessory item which meant I needed to purchase the handle. It changed how I can mount my skylite's on a regular light stand, a c-stand or high roller. Now it is more balanced and easily to handle on smaler budgeted shoots where it may be just myself or one assistant.
Handy
A little pricey for what it is, but worth the investment for ease of holding and attaching to a c-stand. I gave it a 4 star due to the springs in the attachment clamps. Not sure why they are aligned the way they are, but the springs came crushed in the handle I received. Also, the clamps do not permanently attach to the bar making them easy to lose.
