Westcott Pocket Box Round Reviews
Flat and compact
By Ann
Rated 5 out of 5

I had recently lost my Gary Fong diffuser head and saw that they weren't producing these at the moment. I thought it was a good opportunity to try something new too. I don't use these types of items a lot, but sometimes in an on-the-go moment, having an available light and diffuser are just more practical than dragging a big light around. I like to use this at weddings when I need to move quickly and want to trigger a second light that my assistant is holding. This is good in low-light reception venues. It is also great to use for my family - I can throw it onto my speedlight quickly for back-to-school early morning portraits outdoors for a touch of light on my favorite subjects. I like that the whole thing folds flat and fits easily into any camera bag - from my Temba bag for travel to my regular camera bag for jobs.
Great addition

It is a great addition to my modest lighting set up. Does as expected and softens the passport look of a bare on camera flash.
