The softbox is an enclosure around a bulb comprising reflective side and back walls and a diffusing material at the front of the light. A soft box can be used with either flash or continuous light.

The problem you might be aware of when you use your flash lights is that the shadows of the object are quite sharp, creating an artificial look to the object. The easiest and probably most effective solution is to use soft boxes to diffuse the shadows. The softbox is most popular for its soft, even light. Softboxes are often used in portrait photography and many other types of commercial photography. It is an effective, lightweight tool for reducing light intensity without sacrificing softness.

The softbox in this listing is 60 x 90cm, comes with Bowens S type speeding ring, and inner and front white diffuser.
