5. Kullanım Talimatları

The AMBITFUL Octagon Softbox is designed to provide soft, even, and bright light for various photographic needs.

Attaching to a Light Source

The softbox features a standard Bowens mount. Align the speed ring of the softbox with the Bowens mount on your studio strobe or continuous light. Insert and twist until it locks securely into place. Ensure the light source is off and cooled down before attachment.

Using Diffusers

The softbox includes an inner and an outer diffuser. These white fabric layers spread the light evenly, reducing harsh shadows and creating a soft, flattering light quality. Use both diffusers for maximum softness. The inner diffuser helps to eliminate hot spots from the light source, while the outer diffuser provides a broad, even spread of light.

Using the Honeycomb Grid

The honeycomb grid attaches to the front of the softbox via Velcro. It is used to narrow the beam of light and prevent light spill, providing more directional control and creating a more dramatic effect with defined shadows. This is particularly useful for accentuating specific areas or creating a focused light pattern.

6. Bakım ve Özen

• Temizlik: Gently wipe the exterior of the softbox with a soft, damp cloth. For the interior reflective surface, use a dry, lint-free cloth. The diffusers and grid can be hand-washed with mild soap and air-dried if necessary.
• Depolamak: Disassemble the softbox and store all components in the provided carrying bag. This protects the fabric and rods from damage and keeps all parts together.
• İşleme: Avoid sharp objects that could puncture or tear the softbox fabric. Do not forcefully bend the support rods beyond their intended flexibility.
