ParaSnap 36" Octa Softbox

The ParaSnap 36" Octa NewGen SterlingFibre softbox is built for portrait and fashion photographers who need a Bowens-mount modifier that opens in seconds. Its octagonal shape produces round catchlights and the quilted SterlingFibre interior maximises output without hot spots. Removable inner and outer diffusers let you tailor contrast for a range of skin tones.

Flashpoint XPLOR 300/400 Speedring Included

The bundled Flashpoint XPLOR 300/400 speedring locks the softbox directly onto compatible Flashpoint strobes without extra adapters. A tool-free chamber lets you swap this ring for Bowens, Broncolor, Profoto, Elinchrom or Godox mounts in moments. That flexibility means one modifier serves multiple lighting systems on location or in the studio.

Swing-and-Snap Setup

A single swing-and-snap motion deploys the frame and locks the classic octagonal shape, so there are no rods to thread or fabric sleeves to wrestle. The quick-collapse mechanism folds the unit flat for transport in a fraction of the usual time. Photographers who need a larger parabolic modifier or a non-Bowens native mount will need a different solution.

Questions about this item

How often will the SterlingFibre interior and the two diffusers need replacement?

The quilted SterlingFibre lining and the removable inner and outer diffusers are built for repeated studio use; replace them only if they become torn or permanently stained.

What limits continuous all-day output when the softbox is mounted on a Flashpoint XPLOR 300 or 400?

The softbox itself has no thermal or power limit; sustained output is governed by the flash unit's duty cycle and cooling.

How much heat or fan noise does the softbox add during a full-day shoot?

The modifier is passive fabric and rods, so it adds no heat or noise; all warmth and fan sound come from the flash head.
