Will this light work for a softbox?

I haven't tried attaching a softbox to it actually, but that is a good idea! It depends if the softbox will wrap around it. I assume you will have to possibly add velcro strips or tape to keep it on there temporarily. I actually like your idea of the softbox because even at it's lowest setting, it is very bright!

Would work probably for a small softbox but would not try it for a medium to large softbox as it is primarily for lighting backdrops or a fill light.

Yes, it should work with a small soft box. But you would need to make sure that the either the optical slave is not blocked or hooked up to a pc sync socket.

I haven't tried a softbox on it yet, but they company might sell some on their website for this specific kit. www.cowboystudio.com.

As long as it fits the softbox and the slave can "see" the other strobe or strobe, it should work. I use it as a background light, which is probably a better option.

that would be unlikely ... there is no mounting point and the tripod base is not really wide enough. It is still a great deal though

No, I think the hole in the softbox, once it's closed would be way to big for this ittle guy and just fall off

I wouldn't put a soft box on it myself, but if I did it would have to be a small one.. you get what you pay for. Not alot of power in this but its perfect for ONLY a fill light. I would not put a softbox on or even attempt to use for a main light. has slow charging time also

Yes they are. When I purchased mine it came with a softbox. It really is a great light at a great price.

Hello Jenna, this is just the soft box. You will need to buy the lighting kit separately. Actually, when you buy the complete lighting kit, the soft box is included. Try to look for the Neewer Lighting Kit right here on Amazon.

The light has a flexible mount so it would work. This is an inexpensive light but there are brighter lights.

it is for E26 based bulb socket for softbox. So it won't be compatible w/flash bulb.

I own this one, the answer is no. Since the center part of the speedlite head will be blocked by the shaft, My guess is there will not be a hot spot in the center of the softbox . Hope this helps.

I use it with novatron. Only limitation with the umbrella type of soft box is the ability to angle up or down. I use it as a rim light, so it's not a issue.

Yes, it will support any hot-shoe flash. Because the mounting for the softbox can be adjusted up and down, it will also work with a flash mounted on a remote trigger or cable

Yes, it should work. Very important you know which back light is needed. CCFL-1bulb or LED.

If you have the correct USB cable, yes. Item does not include a "lighting" cable.

I would need more infor on your interfit softbox to let you know. I am using this speed ring for my beauty dish, soft box and a lot more light modifiers.

Cool almost blue light. It's very dimmable, but not compatible with my softbox.

It does not have TTL capabilities,so it will work with the Canon, but you have to set the power setting manually. Of course the softbox is not a flash. It is just a light diffuser that mounts on almost any flash, but the Newer flash cannot be used for video and it does run on aa batteries and the rechargeable ones are reccomended.

This is for continuous lighting kit, not for flash strobe lightkit. If you would like flash light w/this softbox, you need mounting kit for flash light,and trigger & receiver to work w/flash light. Regards, kim

It will work fine as Julio said as long as you are going to use it with Speedlights/Speedlites. If you look at a beauty dish that already has a bracket (http://www.amazon.com/Fotodiox-Diffuser-Speedring-Speedlite-600EX-RT/dp/B005ODJBR6/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid;=1396181387&sr;=8-3&keywords;=fotodiox+beauty+dish) you can see it is the exact same thing, except this one has an adapter for a softbox. You can remove the silver part with 4 small bolts and you are good to go. Then if you ever want to use it for a softbox, you can do that as well.

This is a soft box, it uses no bulb. There is nothing electrical about this item. You must own a monolight before you can use this.

I don't know. The kit seems to be designed to work with speed lights. I will tell you that this box is VERY hard to assemble.
