Nanlite 120cm Easy Up Quick Fold Parabolic Softbox

If you want the low down on the Nanlite 120cm Easy Up Quick Fold Parabolic Softbox, checkout my my review with

This post is from
The 120cm Easy Up parabolic softbox makes it faster to set up and pack up, thanks to the quick fold umbrella mechanism inside.
The softbox offers a quality diffused light that will enhance videos, and photos. The 120cm Easy Up features an outer diffusion material and an optional grid to control light spill and give more direction. This Quick fold softbox uses industry-standard Bowens mount to connect to the Forza 200, 300 and 500.
