Elinchrom Rotalux Octabox 135cm Softbox

The Elinchrom Rotalux softboxes are the best in their class!

They are lightweight and unlike many other softboxes, fold down just like an umbrella and can be easily stored in the included carrying bag. The quality of light is outstanding because of their superior construction and the internal diffuser provides the softest and most even light possible.

The optional Deflector Set takes advantage of the unique Elinchrom central shaft to modify the softness / hardness and colour like no other softbox system.

The Rotalux 135cm Octa is a beautifully soft modifier. Used in conjunction with a low power setting and close in to the subject, along with its Internal and external diffusion layers, this provides an extremely soft natural light which smoothes skin textures in camera. Used with more power and further away, it can evenly light larger groups of people. Very popular with the Newborn, Portrait and Beauty Photographer. Large enough to be used as a high key background for head shots too

The Rotalux Octagonal 135cm Softbox is very popular among beauty and fashion photographers, as they prefer the round catchlights created in the eyes. You can also make yourself a great folding beauty dish just by removing the front and inner diffusers and adding one of the optional deflectors. If you don't have the space or the budget for an Elinchrom Octa Lightbank, this is a great alternative as it creates a large soft pool of light.
