Hi 'all
Sorry for the long post, the question is simple:
How do I search/purchase in adorama, amazon, etc. for the "whole" solution of a softbox to have it on my light stand with my Vivitars 285HV
==================
I'll explain.
I'm trying to buy a softbox but on those sites(amazon, adorama, etc.)..., well, there are lots of softboxes but they DON'T specify enough for me to know if I'm able to use my Strobes Vivitars or SB600 with it.
Derrel here has helped me on another post giving me some useful links to softbox brands websites and they're good and clear, but I would like to be able to buy also from what ever site that offers softboxes.
For example, in Adorama there's a softbox that says...
Interfit Photographic Rectangular Softbox for Strobes, 36" x 48".
A pic...
And then a little note:
"Requires Adapter Speed Ring to fit Your Flash Unit, Sold Seperatly."
And that's it.
Ok, fine, it says ".. for strobes", so..., speedlights, strobes or Flash are the same thing?, I know mine are not Continuos Flash lights, but not sure for example what "speedlights" referes to.
Anyhow, then it says "requires adapter ring..."
so, I then search on the site for "interfit adapter speed ring" which it shows several rings...
For example: Interfit Photographic Adapter Speed Ring, Adapts Interfit Pro Series Softboxes to White Lightning Flash Units.
how am I going to know which one is?, and then... that would be it?
I see the photos of those round rings and can't see how my strobes are going to fit there and/or from where it is screwed on my light stands.
I can't see in the picture the back of the softbox so don't have a good idea of how or where goes my strobes.
thank you very much
