Digital camera reviews of Photoflex FVXT1SLDKIT Small LiteDome Kit with Swivel and Stand
Digital camera Review: Backet hardware a disappointment
Summary: 2 Stars
The stand is a good compromise between weight and durability. The softbox is easy to set up and solid feeling, though the casting of the ring is a bit rough. The bracket that holds the box to the flash and stand is complete junk.
Since that bracket is the important bit of this kit, I will focus on it. I hope its still usable on my unit which I have done a total of ONE short shoot with. The stud which goes into the umbrella swivel doesn't bottom out where it should, doesn't hold tight to the bracket and breaks loose causing the flash and softbox to rotate randomly. It got pretty bent up in the ensuing crash (which THANK GOD didn't have my SB-800 on it at the time). I think I've straightened it, it is soft metal and bends easily. I put locktight on all the threads, since NONE of them stayed down in an acceptable fashion.
I might expect this sort of trouble with a cheapo Chinese knockoff. I've always thought of photoflex as being pro gear, and am sorely disappointed in the bracket which makes this lightkit otherwise so useful. I should NOT have to use locktite on threads of "professional" lighting gear!
Summary of Photoflex FVXT1SLDKIT Small LiteDome Kit with Swivel and Stand
This kit is used to soften the light output of your shoe-mount style flash. Includes a LiteStand and hardware for stable light placement. The face of the Small LiteDome is 16 x 22 inches. The diffusion face is easily removed, allowing you to go from soft, diffused lighting to high-contrast without changing your setup. Small LiteDome soft box works with our small Dome Accessory Kit and small Grids (available separately), giving you great control over light direction.Accessories
