How could I place this overhead on two c-stands when shooting out doors?
Asked by: Mark
The tubing of the Chimera Frame for Frame/Panel Reflectors - 48x48" (B&H# CHFP4848) is designed to be inserted in the grip head that is used on a typical C stand. Here's an example of one: Impact Grip Head for Lights and Accessories - 2.5" Diameter (Chrome) (B&H# IMKCP200) https://bhpho.to/3E1M6oC Here's how it looks (albeit with a different but somewhat similar product) when attached: https://bit.ly/3jn2qIK In your use case you'd attach the side of the frame (on each side) to your C-stand using a grip head like the one mentioned earlier.

question

I'm used to these scrims having groomets and elastic corners to hold them on the frame (the rag place). Not on these???? !! ???
Asked by: Carl
The Chimera Frame for Frame/Panel Reflectors - 48x48 listed above is only the frame; it does not include a fabric screen or panel with its purchase. However, the Chimera fabric reflectors/diffusers designed for use with this frame would only have an elastic corner on the ends of the fabric to connect to the frame; it will not have grommet holes for attachment purposes.
