The Elinchrom Rotalux 150cm Indirect Octa is a new design, based on the Rotalux softbox range that allows the photographer to mount an Elinchrom flash head inside the softbox via an included adapter ring. The resultant rear-facing flash produces a superb crisp light, when used open without a diffuser and can be modified to a soft light, with softer shadows, by using the included diffuser making it ideal for both fashion and beauty work. The unit mounts directly to a heavy duty light stand (EL31043 or heavier recommended) and the direction is controlled with the handle on the rear of the softbox. The Rotalux design means this softbox can be folded down umbrella style without the need for dismantling and stored in the included carry bag.
