  • 4 ft Octa

    Love this modifier. Easy to set up and well made. This Modifier makes using a med to large modifier so easy and great for travel.

  • Profoto Softbox Octa - instant unfolding and folding

    Great solution. It unfolds and folds quickly without the inconvenient insertion of rods and you no longer need to remember about the speedring. However, at this price the set should include sotgrid,

  • Game Changer

    I have always used umbrellas since soft boxes are so time consuming to assemble and take down. But this is a game changer! Quick and easy, great light, and very well made. Highly recommended.

  • Game Changer!

    I have always used umbrellas because it is such a pain to set up and take down a soft box. But this is a game changer! Extremely well made, quick to set up and take down, and provides perfect light. Very highly recommended.

  • Good quality but expensive

    With a body weight of 1.2kg and a folding mechanism, this softbox is extremely lightweight convenient to use with the B10X.However, there is a little slight unevenness in the light intensity between the center and the periphery, which is not seen in conventional octaboxes. Traditional octaboxes are more lighter, but require eight rods to be attached to the speed ring and take longer to assemble and disassemble. The tag that says "Made in Korea" suggests that SMDV may be his OEM manufacturer for Profoto. I owned the SMDV Flip36Pro softbox (90cm), but the Profoto brand softbox (90cm) has a special mount, so it feels a little lighter, and the mounting part seems to be more rigid. Even if brand recognition, reliability, and customer support are good, it is questionable that the price difference is twice as high.

  • Great softbox

    So much easier to use than any other soft box. Produces great light. Only reason not 5 stars is price too high, but so is all Profoto gear. Maybe its worth it?

  • Almost perfect, until the gloves are on

    This is a really good larger version of the Clic Softbox, very quick and easy to work with. But, and this goes for a lot of equipment, please test them in winter with gloves on and see if locks, knobs and other stuff are as easy to work with as they are with just fingers.

Specifications:

Profoto Softbox 3' (90cm) Octa Silver

Ideal for flattering portraits
Product number: 201501

The Profoto Softbox Octa sets up in seconds thanks to its integrated speedring and creates a stunning, soft light. Its circle-like shape generates natural catchlights in the subject’s eyes, making it perfect for portraiture photography. The Octa shape produces equally soft or hard edges on all sides, making it ideal for fashion, beauty, and portrait photography.

Featuring an all-in-one mount design, the Profoto Softbox Octa is incredibly easy to set up with a quick fold/unfold solution. In addition, it provides adjustable softness and intensity of light through its removable and interchangeable diffuser. The recessed front evenly delivers a distribution of natural-looking light and as it is heat-resistant, it is compatible with flashes using halogen continuous (up to 500W halogen) light as well.

With a range of accessories available, the Profoto Softbox Octa provides complete creative freedom for photographers seeking precise control over their lighting setups.

Note: When used with ProHead on power level 10 (2400Ws) together with continuous light (500W) on full effect, a maximum of 8 flashes per minute is recommended to prevent the speedring from getting too hot to touch.
