Chimera Quick Release Speed Ring for Bowens Overview

The Chimera Quick Release Speed Ring simplifies set up and take down of Lightbanks and softboxes becomes as easy as flipping a lever. It also makes it very easy to move Lightbanks around sets, through doors, and tight spots without disassembling the Lightbank. The cost of the Quick Release Speed Ring is only a fraction more than regular "static" Speed Rings. The value in time savings and ease of use will more than pay for the difference.

This Speed Ring with Quick Release is for Bowens Esprit (Small) Series.

Total Game-Changer

I used to spend way too much time fighting with softboxes to get them fitted onto a speed ring. This makes life so easy for connecting modifiers, and it's great that you can collapse softboxes and still keep the speed ring on. Highly recommend.

Top Notch SPEEDy Ring

This piece has re-enlisted my older medium Pancake lantern and is perfect for my new small pancake lantern. Super convenient and only a pittance more than the old static rings! Thank you Chimera for saving me time; not only on setup, but at wrap as well!
