Fotodiox F60 Quick-Collapse Flash Softbox - 60cm (24in) Hexagon for Canon Speedlight and Nikon, Vivitar, Sunpack, Nissin, Sigma, Sony, Pentax,

The Fotodiox F60 Quick-Collapse Flash Softbox has received a mix of positive and negative feedback from customers. The softbox is praised for its quick setup - taking around 2 minutes, good light diffusion, and portability, making it suitable for on-location photography, especially for portrait work. Customers appreciate its compact size, affordability, and the fact that it can be operated with a single hand while shooting with the other. However, there have been some issues with the product. The handle assembly and shoe mount have been highlighted as areas of concern. Several users reported that the handle is flimsy and prone to breaking, while the shoe mount broke under the weight of a flash during the first use. Some customers also noted that the handle does not hold the softbox upright when mounted on a light stand and that the stems continually detach from their holders. The need for a sturdier handle and improvements to the handle's design have been suggested by users. In terms of build quality, opinions varied. While some found the build quality to be average and encountered issues, others did not experience any problems after multiple uses. Additionally, requests to add adapter options to Bowens mount and recommendations for a sturdier handle or aluminum assembly have been made. Overall, users find the softbox to be a good option for those on a budget, especially for portrait or fashion photography in on-location or run-and-gun situations.
