Great compact alternative to Bowens but with caveats.
Pro: Great lighting!Love the quality of light and the number of parts/accessories it comes with.Cons: none so far in a month of sporadic use.Maybe I could say that, the zippered opening on the softbox could be slightly longer and closer to the mount. It would greatly help in adjusting my custom gels from flashgels.com. But that's a nitpick.Cons not related to the softbox: Not the softbox's issue but mentioning here for context and to share knowledge.This softbox proves too heavy for the AD300pro's provided light mounting tool. That tiny thing doesn't have enough friction nor leverage in it's compact design to accommodate the weight and loses its position easily.Solution: I had no issues though with keeping the AD300Pro in the Godox S2 bracket. The S2 bracket is much stronger and better designed to get good mechanical leverage for tightening the angle of the light. But then this sort of deflates the purpose of the whole compact Godox mount and light system. The great thing though with this, is that the tight fit and the rectangular base battery bump on the AD300Pro prevent the light from sliding out of the S2 bracket. That's a great way to reduce points of failure.Minor worry: while the softbox is built well, I worry that over time of prolonged use, the umbrella style twisting we do to close it tight might loosen up a lot.But only time will tell and that's also down to my limited experience with this style of softbox.
