Tried to look for this softbox in this forum but couldn't find it..please excuse me if it's already been discussed somewhere here.

This is for speedlites: http://www.viewfinderp​hotography.co.uk/produ​ct_view.php?prod_id=11​45 (external link)

I am thinking of getting this..it's in UK though so I'd have to pay extra for shipping. Do you think it's worth the extra $$ for shipping?

The setup seems a bit long...especially since i will be using it for outdoor portraits.

I like the size and that it has that internal reflector thing (what do you call those? is it the internal diffuser?). I like that the back of the flash unit can easily be accessed and seems light enough so that it doesn't require a bracket.

What do you think? I wouldn't mind going a little bigger than this. If you have a better alternative please reply! :) Even better if it is in the U.S.

Thanks!

Well, seeing as the video was only 4 minutes long including some product usage, I wouldn't call it that long of a setup time.

Looks like a nice product. If I were still shooting with speedlights I'd probably pick 1-2 up. I've actually visited the viewfinder photo shop and bought some of their stuff. Seems like they have a nice way to design and manufacture custom stuff that no one else has.

True - I guess it's a relatively long setup compared to other softbox designs I've seen and thinking about relocating at different outdoor locations in the cold. I'm just concerned about the size..I don't want to be disappointed with its size like I was with the lumiquest promax softbox iii.
