Made from the same materials as the standard Cubelite with the added bonus of weather resistant steel, this Manfrotto Outdoor Cubelite (3') version has the advantages of a removable base and back, allowing the photographer more versatility for shooting.
The Outdoor Cubelite can be placed directly over the subject or with the back removed it can even be photographed in its natural surroundings with no compromise necessary for lighting or weather conditions.
Sets up in seconds to form a self-contained, completely enclosed shooting environment free of unwanted reflections and shadows.
