    Re: Lumiquest soft box

    Thanks very much, glad you all like them.

    The softbox got another workout today (I'm on vacation). After reviewing those, I'll post some more samples. I had a friend with me and gave her something similar, she learned to use it effectively in under an hour.

    My flash unit is a Sony 36(something). However, these are held on with velcro, and will work with any unit.

    I know it's not a gecko! Just couldn't think of anything else to type there. Thanks again folks.
