I'm looking to get a softbox but really don't know which one to get. I read a few post and some guys really like the Westcott 28, but the only problem with that is the 430EX mounts inside the box. Will this be a pain to open it back up just to adjust the output of the flash? I'm guessing it would be. Or would it be better to get one that mounts on the outside? Then I could use the 580EXII to trigger the 430EX using E-TTL and it would be very easy adjusting the output if I I decide to use manual? I just ordered the Cactus V4, too.
Thanks

jet,
look into this kit, not bad for the money...you can light one to two people.

I use it and it easy set up...flash is on the outside so that you can get to controls real easy.
