Probably can't take much of a load. A but fiddly to change the angle but no worse than a C Stand. You might need a light stand with a baby pin rather than a normal spigot but I imagine screwing a ...

Looks like a normal hand held boom in a grip head.

I think you are right I don't think the L858-U works with an HS strobe. Have you contacted Sekonic to ask them about this?

That's not true. Neewer is not a manufacturer. It has gear made for it by a range of manufactures including Godox. The Vision 5 is made by Visco and the radio system is incompatible with the Godox one.

That was (and I think still is) a problem with using TTL on Sony cameras with fast primes. As far as I remember it results in under exposure. my theory was that Sony flashes uses a lower intensity ...

You don't have both the metal disk and the diffusion on the AD-S7 do you?

When you are using HSS the strobe appears to be producing  continuous light as far as the sensor is concerned. So increasing the shutter speed reduces both the ambient light and the light from the ...

Does seem darker that I'd expect. What's the ISO setting? I hardly ever use HSS. This is using a TT600 at full power in a Godox square softbox about a metre away.  In a room with daylight coming ...

They do not have craps softboxes. Their modifier line is the best stuff they do. There's a posting in this thread where I recommend the Rotalux range to the OP before I found out what lights he was ...

Yes, obviously. Why do you think the AD-S85/S65 rods don't unbend? Have you used the device? "Pebbled" silver surfaces are not exclusive to Elinchrom I own Elinchrom and Godox softboxes which have ...

Really? The only negative he raises id the internal disks. I don't use them either. All softboxes have  "little rods" They need to be little so the bend.

OK. So I presume you are using the speedlights in an S -Type/S2 bracket and so need a Bowens mount modifier. You are only getting ~ 70Ws out of the light so the Elinchrom modifiers are probably ...

What light are you using? Speedlight? Battery strobe? What mount are you using? Which Godox softbox do you have and how has it failed? There seem to be quite a variation in the quality of Godox ...

Yes, and I asked if he has used TTL and had auto ISO on. Asking if somebody has done something is not the same as saying they should have done it.

I'm 100% certain thet BAK knows how HSS works. You are thinking of the Sekonic L-858D-U

Yes you would expect to use the bulb rather then the fresnel in a softbox so that you get an even spread of light. What have you used the fresnel for that leads you to this conclusion? What softbox ...

Good point. My TT600s recycle quicker than the Li-ion strobes with a PB-960 and the availability of splitter cables means I can power a cluster of 4 TT600s with a single PB-960 (with slower ...

Good idea. 430EXII are being offered for ~£85 on eBay. If you don't want TTL then the TT600 is £56 on Amazon . That one comes with a whole bunch of extra crap which you will never use. If you want ...

Ye, I think he used that a lot. I've also seen him use an old style Gary Fong lightsphere on a speedlight with the head pointing forward.

The swivel is very like the ones on the AD600Pro/AD400Pro/S2 bracket. By ratchet I mean the the handle has a button which lets you rotate it without tightening/loosening the swivel (like the ...
