I know there are a lot of DIY's on google on how to make a softbox, but I would like to know a good and simple one for a flash mounted softbox. All the ones I seem to find are about 4' Big, and im looking for something a little more compact and effective.
Thanks

With a DIY one you can make it as big as you want.. I made a small softbox that is maybe 2 foot square.. With the smaller box its harder to diffuse the light than a bigger box so you might have to experiment a little. Plus with smaller box your limited to smaller objects also..
