LightPro 90cm Quick-fold Heavy Duty Softbox with Grid
LightPro 90cm Quick-fold Heavy Duty Softbox with Grid - High-Speed Modifier for Cinematic Wrap
The LightPro LPSB90Q is a rugged, 16-sided parabolic modifier engineered to deliver perfectly even, edge-to-edge wrap and flattering catchlights for high-end portraiture, commercial video, and broadcast lighting setups.
Built for the Demands of Modern Production
Time is money on any professional set, and striking lighting setups must happen fast. The LightPro 90cm Quick-fold Heavy Duty Softbox solves this with an advanced locking mechanism featuring 16 built-in rods that snap into place in seconds. Unlike traditional softboxes that require frustrating loose rod assembly, this quick-release system drastically cuts down setup and tear-down times while maintaining a perfectly taut, highly tensioned structure. Reinforced corners ensure the modifier can withstand the physical demands of daily transport and heavy-duty grip work without tearing or losing its shape.
Achieving the perfect level of diffusion and spill control is critical for shaping dynamic, cinematic light. The highly reflective specular silver interior maximizes the photometrics of your COB LED or strobe, while the dual-layer diffusion—comprising a removable inner baffle and a front diffuser—allows you to dial in precise, artifact-free softness. By integrating a 16-sided parabolic design, an essential upgrade from standard 8-sided octaboxes, this modifier creates exceptionally soft, natural-looking illumination. This true circular shape also guarantees perfectly round, flattering catchlights in your subject's eyes.
Precision light manipulation is baked into the design. The included fabric honeycomb grid provides immediate directional control, aggressively cutting light spill and enabling you to isolate the subject without contaminating the background or altering the contrast ratios of the set. Combined with an interchangeable Bowens mount that natively supports industry-standard fixtures, this heavy-duty softbox delivers professional-grade versatility for rigorous studio environments and demanding on-location shoots alike.

Production FAQ
Does this modifier maintain its shape over time with constant use?
Yes. The softbox features heavily reinforced corners to prevent wear from the extreme rod tension, and the stitched-in rods prevent internal shifting, ensuring a perfectly symmetrical 16-sided parabolic shape over its lifespan.
Can I use this softbox with non-Bowens light fixtures?
Out of the box, it features an interchangeable Bowens mount adapter, meaning the inner speedring insert can be unbolted and swapped with compatible third-party rings (such as Profoto or Elinchrom) to match your specific lighting ecosystem.
How does the quick-release system operate on a fast-paced set?
The softbox utilizes a built-in umbrella-style locking mechanism where all 16 rods remain attached to the core ring; a single grip simply pushes the rods outward until they click securely into place, allowing for a complete setup or teardown in under 60 seconds.
Will it create center hotspots when using high-output point-source LEDs?
No. When both the removable inner baffle and the outer front diffusion layer are utilized, the harsh central beam is perfectly homogenized before exiting the modifier, eliminating hotspots and guaranteeing a pristine, even wash of light.
