Can this be used to mount PCB 47" octabox, also PCB 22" BD?

And is $479 the current price for Rovelight 600B? Any way to get the previous $399 deal?

Thank you

Yes on the Octa... no on the BD. The BD is made just for teh alien bees. I have one.

I'm fixing to modify it (drilling/bolting required to accomplish this) To get it to fit to bowens mount.

and FYI... they just jacked the price up on those speedlight S2 adapters. I just bought 4 of them 2 days ago for 22.65/ea prime.

Gotcha!

So Whats the verdict on trigger choice for HSS?

Godox Cells II vs YN622c with Hot shoe PC sync cord?

I use the YN-622c as wireless trigger w/o problem, just the sync cord and no need for hot shoe adapter. But I already own few of theose.

Got the link for he sync cord?
Initially i was leaning towards Cells II for cleaner setup but I have a 6D and looking at GodoxStudio eBay listing, its not supported, so now where to get the older Cells II that does maybe support 6D? Or just go for one YN622c and a Sync cord.

"1. Cells II does not support 6D with HSS function!!
2. This is NEW version Cells II, which supports Canon 5D Mark III perfectly."

Talley beat me to the punch, but yes this (http://www.amazon.com …0&linkId=OHIMD4​VWMZGWD56K) is the correct adapter to mount any PCB softbox and/or octabox, however it won't work for the rigid BD. I have one too but it won't fit any of my Bowens mount lights, only my Alien Bees and White Lighting monolights.

I just got the cells II and it works great. Can't wait to go use it more

Rob, what kind of backdrop is that?

Sorry, I just saw this! It is a DennyMFG quickstep backdrop. It was regularily $2xx.00 and I got it $59.00 right before this shoot. I ordered 3 diff colors at that price. 10x20 size.
The only bad thing is that you have to clamp it tightly to remove wrinkles!! The dryer and steam tricks simply do not work!!

I believe that hot shoe is for tethering shoot/passthrough, not wireless. I could be wrong, but that is my impression. The way I have mine is 622-tx on my 5D3 and 622c attach to RL-600 via short sync cord. The remote trigger that came with it was not needed in anyway. Still it is wise to keep that trigger on your hand/pocket to uae it as remote to adjuat light power. Even though 622-TX have an option to adjust timing for HSS monolight, no adjustment is needed for me and other who have tried with this setup. If you already have some 622c, I would sugguest you try to do so with this method first, hence a shot pc sync cord is relatively cheap and offer you wireless trigger. The TX model may or may not be needed because there was no adjustment needed on the TX, but I can't say that for sure. Maybe I should try that when I have time, but definitely not this weekend. Too busy with work. The wireless remote solution definitely work with RL-600 in/out of HSS mode. No black bar for me. Since I just got a 7D2 I should test it with this solution also. I need to know the full capabilities and limitations anyway. Perhaps even a short review. That said I still dont have any modifier other than what came with it.

I see...
Looks like most sell two YN622C together.
And i believe it can both act as trigger or receiver...

Thanks

Can you tell me what was the distance between modifier and subject?

Yes, they are transceiver. I keep a ziptie on my battery handles for my RL...B. Just slip the 622C in when I need to use the light and away I shoot, keep the garbage remote local just for making adjustments so i dont have to walk over to the light., but if you ever forget the remote... no worries, just walk over to it and make your adjustments.

It was hot and windy out but the RL held its ground! The shadows were not completely eliminated but the Rovelight was awesome.
