  • Umbrella-style opening with 16 ribs for rapid setup

  • Sturdy aluminium support rods maintain structural stability
  • Enhanced monolight output from mirror-symmetrical reflector design

Portable deep parabolic softbox

The Glow Edge 20" deep parabolic softbox is a collapsible light modifier designed for fashion and portrait photographers who need studio-quality shaping on location. Its 16-rib structure creates a true parabolic bowl that focuses output into a controlled, wrap-around beam.

EZ Lock mechanism and aluminium ribs

The self-catching EZ Lock surrounds a thick centre shaft, letting you push-lock the frame open with one hand and release it with a wide button. Sturdy aluminium support rods replace flexible rods, removing the usual struggle with alignment and speed-ring holes during setup.

Mirror-symmetrical parabola efficiency

The deep parabolic profile transmits light efficiently over short or long distances, enhancing the energy output of a mounted monolight without the fragility of a metallic magnum reflector. Fabric strength and rigid ribs maintain shape during transport, so output stays consistent shoot after shoot.

Questions about this item

What mount does the 20" deep parabolic softbox use?

The softbox uses the EZ Lock system that surrounds a thick centre shaft with a push-lock mechanism and a wide release button for quick assembly.

What physical space does the 20" deep parabolic softbox need when open?

The 16-rib design opens to a 20-inch deep parabolic shape that requires enough clearance for the full umbrella-style spread and aluminium support rods.

How do you lock the EZ Lock softbox open and what step do users miss?

Push the centre shaft until the self-catch clicks; the step users miss is pressing the wide release button fully before trying to collapse the unit.
