No one uses the 12" BD?

I don't have one do to it being too small for the things I shoot and would be a waste of money.


I did a google search and this review came up that might help ya.

I really like it as a hair light using the grid, but the whole thing falls off after 30 minutes when facing downward. The knob is tight but doesn't help. Could just be mine and I will use some gaff tape next time. It also tested well for food and boxed products. It's the perfect size for that. However, I still use strobes, speedlites and other modifiers for such assignments rather than the AD360. It might be handy for the right job some day.

LOL I wore mine out and it now sags between the rollers do to much weight of all the stuff, but it still works great as a optional backpack.

I had an old one that I wore the wheels out, contacted LP and they sent me a coupon to purchase another at half off the x300!!

Nice
They would probably laugh at me and ask how much weight did i have in.

I have used the 12"BD as a hair light and for accent lighting.

I carry mine in a Pelican 1540. This picture is a little old, I've since replaced the Speed Pro bracket with the S brackets.

It's been a while since I've posted any pics using my Cheetah lights. Here's a few for you.

...a few more photos

^^^ nice work

Has anyone found a quick and easy way to gel one of these bare bulb units? I picked up the colored gel set that works with the standard reflector with the thicker sheets than typical gels to play with color effects. I would like to pick up half and full CTO as well but I'm afraid typical thin gel sheets would be too flimsy to try to cut and use in that type of mounting system.
