Godox S85T Softbox 85cm/33.5in Foldable Quick Release Umbrella Softbox with Standard Bowen Mount & Diffusers for Studio Portrait Live Stream Photography

This is without doubt my favourite softbox. Great size, super lightweight, really soft light and you can put it up and take it down in a matter of seconds. I don’t even need to remove either diffusion sheet. One of the buys of the year for me.

This product is light and easy to carry around. Very easy to assemble with its umbrella style function. The build quality is good I have tested this on an outdoor shoot . Easy to fit in its holder which is provided. Value for money ? Keep your eyes open as it tends to fluctuate however it’s still a great deal. This produces good light and its functionality is as it says on the box .I would recommend this product

The item did no arrive on time, but the support was always perfect tan very kind. thanks a lot.

Acheté il y a 6 mois, cette boite à lumière de campagne me donne toutes satisfactions. Rapide à monter, elle n'est pas pingre en diversité de lumières. Sans rien devant, avec le réflecteur argenté, la puissance est là. Ensuite, on peut mettre un diffuseur, puis un autre (livrés les 2 avec) si la lumière n'est pas assez douce. On peu rajouter une grille nid d'abeille (option payante) et aussi un disque réflecteur (option payante également) pour la transformer en disque beauté. En déplacement on un ensemble de possibilités avec un seul système, ce qui permet de ne pas se surcharger, d'autant que le 65 cm est compacte une fois replié.

I got my hands on the Godox softbox through Amazon Vine. Just so you know, that means they sent me a free one to test, but they didn't pay me to write this, and I'm going to give you my honest take on the product. I own a bunch of softboxes and umbrellas of all different brands, shapes, and sizes. But when I'm on the move, I tend to grab my umbrellas because they're just so darn portable and easy to use. I figured I'd give the Godox Quick Release a shot . I specifically went for the 65cm size since I wanted something small that could easily slip in my gear bag. First good news, this little softbox is exactly what I was hoping for size-wise. When folded, it's only about 33cm long. You get the usual stuff you'd expect with a softbox: inner and outer diffusion fabrics, plus a carrying bag. No surprises there. One thing to note: it doesn't come with an egg crate panel. Now, the product photos do show a diffusion plate, but it wasn't included in my package. I've checked review photos from other folks, and they didn't seem to get one either. Godox, you might want to update your pictures or give a clearer breakdown of what's in the box. Anyway, the softbox feels nicely made. The quick-release mechanism is where this thing really shines. It's super smooth and literally takes only a couple of seconds to open or close. Fantastic! Since I own a ton of Bowens-mount lights, both flash and continuous, the included Bowens adapter was a big plus for me and my workflow. I tested it out shooting portraits as a sort of makeshift beauty dish, and it did a great job creating flattering, soft light on my subjects. An egg crate would've been the cherry on top to really control that light spill, and I need to check if Godox makes one for this size. All in all, this little softbox is a winner in my book. If you're looking for something with a small footprint, great build quality, and crazy-fast setup, it's definitely worth checking out.

Very convenient, I love it. I used to take with me the 140cm non quick release version.. it was always a mess to install. Now it’s very convenient to go and shoot on location. The quality is good.

Sehr gute Softbox mit 85 cm, leicht in der Handhabung besonderst wenn die Softbox im Freien genutzt wird. Wenn man den Schirm zuhause vorbereitet, also alles einbaut was man und wie man es benötigt, und dann den Schirm zusammenfaltet, in die Transporttasche steckt und am gewünschten Ort benötigt einfach aufspannen und loslegen. Spart echt Zeit und Mühe. Meine ersten Porträtaufnahmen mit einem Pärchen an einem sonnigen Tag, zeigte mir, dass ich den richtigen Kauf gemacht habe. Mit einem Aufsteckblitz (GODOX TT585 II C) und der entsprechenden Halterung für den Blitz (Bowens Godox S-Type) , kein Problem alles tip top. Leider muss man das Softboxgitter extra erwerben, aber auch das ist es wert. Ich persönlich kann diesen Artikel, nur weiterempfehlen. P.S. Dies ist meine persönliche Meinung.
