any reccomendations for a softbox/lightstand+hot​shoebracket kit?

i was looking at the photoflex litedome one.
but i havent seen much of them on this forum.

any comparable kits? im going to be using shoe mount flashes so studio flashes are out of the question. im not about to drop 300 on a vagabond at the moment

Check out the Westcott Apollo's. They work very well with shoe mount flashes and I have even shoved my Alien Bee in one.

Also, I use the Lastolite Ezybox, but its a different beast.

Yep. The Westcott Apollo would be my pick.
