Softbox Neewer 85 cm B0BLC6NCGK — 85 cm studiopehmeä laatikko jatkuvalle ja salamavalolle

The Neewer Hexadecagon softbox with an 85 cm diameter is a studio light modifier designed to soften and evenly diffuse light from continuous and flash sources. Its deep parabolic form and internal silver coating provide neutral color rendering and even illumination, making it suitable for portrait, product and fashion photography. The kit includes two diffusion layers, a honeycomb grid, and a carrying bag for transport and storage.

Advantages

The softbox features a 16-rib construction that maintains a stable parabolic shape and allows quick tool-free unfolding in under 15 seconds. Dual diffusers offer flexible control over light softness, while the included honeycomb grid narrows the beam to create directional highlights and reduce spill. Lightweight materials and a padded carrying bag make the unit easy to transport for studio or on-location shoots. Compatibility with a common Bowens-style mount ensures it works with many continuous and flash heads.

Suitable for

• Portrait photography — soft, wraparound lighting for flattering skin tones
• Product and e-commerce shots — even illumination with reduced hot spots
• Fashion and editorial — controllable highlights and model separation
• Location and studio use — portable and quick to set up

When it may not be suitable

Because the softbox is a modifier designed for controlled, soft light, it is not intended to provide the concentrated punch of a bare reflector or snoot. Photographers who require extremely narrow spot lighting or very compact modifiers for tight spaces may find this 85 cm unit too large or too diffused for those specific needs.

How to use

Attach the softbox to a compatible Bowens-style studio head and secure it according to the light manufacturer's instructions. Unfold the softbox using the quick-open mechanism until the 16 ribs lock in place. Place one or both diffusers inside to achieve the desired softness and attach the honeycomb grid if you need more controlled directionality. Adjust the light-to-subject distance and angle to fine-tune falloff and highlights. When finished, remove the grid and diffusers, collapse the softbox, and store it in the supplied carrying bag.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm your light head supports a Bowens-style mount or use an appropriate adapter
• Assess whether an 85 cm diameter fits your shooting space and desired light spread
• Consider transportation needs—folded dimensions and included carrying bag
• Check that the weight (1.5 kg) and stand capacity are compatible

Recommendations

For portrait work, place the softbox relatively close to the subject to achieve soft wraparound light; for product shots, increase the distance or add the inner diffuser only to retain some specular highlights. Use the honeycomb grid to emphasize facial contours or separate the subject from the background.
