how's the light distribution on the EZ-Pro Octa36 using a single speedlight? (even on all areas or does it have a hot spot?)

Sep 28, 2013 15:36 | #22 It's interesting that with no inner diffuser panel, only the outer, the center meters 1 stop under the outside area of the outer diffuser. I didn't think the umbrella mechanism would block that much light. Would you like to buy a vowel?

Sep 28, 2013 18:30 | #24 Taking a reading .4 meters from the outer diffuser yields a constant output from the center out to nearly the edge (about 4cm from the edge). It's different falloff, or lack there of, than what I'm use to. I generally shoot without an inner diffuser, feathering the center hot spot out. Would you like to buy a vowel?
