Huge Time Saver & Very Solid Build
I’m really impressed with this softbox. The quick release system is a game changer. It saves a bunch of time during setup and breakdown, especially when you’re working on location or switching setups fast. The build quality feels very solid and professional. The materials are sturdy, the structure holds its shape well, and everything locks in securely. It doesn’t feel cheap at all. The included carrying bag is also a nice bonus and makes transport easy. Light quality is beautiful and soft, perfect for portraits and video work. Overall, a great product that makes the workflow faster and more efficient. Highly recommend!

Excellent Softbox with Fast Setup and Beautiful Light
This 90cm softbox has quickly become one of my favorite lighting tools. The quick release design is excellent and it takes only seconds to go from folded in the bag to fully set up with a single click. Taking it down is just as fast which is a huge time saver during busy shoots. The build quality is impressive. Even though it is lightweight and compact it feels very sturdy thanks to the strong stainless steel ribs. When folded it is easy to carry and transport making it perfect for outdoor events location shoots and travel. The light quality is where this softbox truly stands out. The diffusion is even and natural and it preserves accurate color rendering. It produces flattering results for portraits and clean professional looking video without harsh shadows or hotspots. The standard Bowens mount works perfectly with my lights and the included storage bag is very convenient. Overall this softbox is well designed easy to use and a valuable addition to any photography or video setup. Highly recommended.

Big, Soft, and Surprisingly Portable
Lighting makes or breaks your video or photo work — there’s no polite way around it. The SmallRig LA-O90 Quick Release Softbox aims to tame harsh lighting into creamy, professional-looking softness, while being easy enough to break down and haul around without needing a PhD in origami. ✅ What Works (Pros): Generous Size – At 35 inches (90 cm), it gives a beautifully soft, even spread perfect for portraits, product shots, or interviews. You’ll instantly notice smoother skin tones and less harsh shadows. Quick Release – The umbrella-style pop-up mechanism is genuinely convenient, letting you go from collapsed to fully built in under a minute. No wrestling with stubborn rods or cursing in front of clients. High-Quality Diffusion – Includes both an internal baffle and an external diffusion layer, giving you nice options for balancing softness and intensity. Solid Build – The materials feel robust, and the included Bowens mount adapter locks firmly in place without wobbles. Travel-Friendly – Collapses compactly for the size, with a nice carry bag included. ⚠️ What Misses the Mark (Cons): 🚫 Bulky for Tight Spaces – Even though it folds small, once opened it takes a lot of real estate, so plan for room if you’re working in cramped studios. 🚫 Mild Sagging – The large size means the outer diffusion can sag slightly, requiring occasional adjustments to keep it perfectly tensioned. 🚫 No Grid Included – For this price, a honeycomb grid would have been a welcome bonus to help control light spill. 🚫 Limited Tilt Angle on Some Stands – Depending on your stand, the size can limit your tilt range if you need to get fancy with top-down or side angles. Bottom Line The SmallRig 35” Quick Release Softbox is a workhorse tool for any serious content creator or photographer who wants beautiful, soft, cinematic lighting with minimal fuss. It combines a professional look, easy assembly, and travel-readiness at a fair price, making it an easy recommendation for most shooters. In short? It’s like bringing a cloud into your studio — big, soft, and surprisingly well-behaved. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️☆ — Four stars for great performance and quick setup, with a few minor caveats.
