  • Strobepro Rapid Snap Strip Softbox (12x55" Medium)

    Game Changing Design

    The Strobepro Rapid Snap softboxes were designed with portability, weight, and speed in mind. It folds flat and sets up in a snap! Compared to umbrella-style softboxes, the Rapid Snap takes up half the space in your bag, weighs at least 25% less, and still sets up in seconds. These are the most versatile and portable softboxes on the market.

    Fastest, Easiest Setup Ever

    Just fan out the rods, and snap the speedring mount together. That's it.

    Huge Space Savings

    The unique snap mechanism allows the speedring mount to fold in half while not in use. Its packaged size 50% thinner than our Rapid Pro softboxes! You can fit twice as many softboxes in your Ultimate Kit Bag, checked luggage or vehicle.

    It's A Lean, Mean, Light Shaping Machine

    The new mechanism allows us to remove all the inner support structure found in our Rapid Pro softboxes, which saves about 25% of the total weight.  Your assistant should complain 25% less about carrying them.

    No Inner Mechanism

    Without umbrella rods to get in the way, the Rapid Snap Softbox can be easily gelled, and you can depend on an unobstructed projection even when the inner diffuser is not in use.

    Multiple Speedring Choices

    The speedring is user changeable to any of the most popular strobe mounts.  Bowens (Strobepro), Profoto, Elinchrom, Alien Bee (Einstein) and even Godox speedrings are available.  Just loosen two screws and slide in the new speedring.

    Your Time is Money

    Please tell us you're not still using softboxes with detachable rods. The first time you snap the Strobepro Rapid Snap Series together, you'll be contemplating what other revelations you could have missed in your life. 

    Why Use a Strip Sotbox

    Strips provide a harder light parallel to the short edge and are excellent for emphasizing shape. They also find their place as rim lights, hair lights, and background lights. Without a grid, they can spill wide while taking up minimal space. With a grid, they become excellent precision modifiers. The 12x55 is perfect for 3/4 length portraits up to full body. It provides a long strip highlight for your product photography.  Flipped horizontally, automotive photographers use these as precision kickers.

    Optional Honeycomb Grid

    Add even more control by purchasing the optional 12x55" honeycomb grid.  Grids are awesome for preventing flare and directing light exactly where you want it.

    Leave The Diffusers

    Go ahead and leave your diffusers attached. They'll stay protected because there is no inner mechanism to snag it on.

    Super Slim Carrying Case

    The included carrying case is all new as well. It is flat with a zippered opening at one end.  Just slide your softbox in, zip it up, and you're good to go.

    Inner Diffuser Included

    Doubling up your diffusion ensures that light hits every part of the front diffuser as evenly as possible, but you can optionally remove the inner diffuser to squeeze out an extra stop.

    Easy to Gel

    We mentioned this already, but it deserves its own header.  Since there's no inner mechanism to worry about, your creative or correction gels can be easily taped into place.

    Almost perfect

    As usual nothing but quality from Strobepro.
    There are generally two types of quick release systems. A button type like this one and a handle type. This button type has in my opinion a major advantage in that you can rotate the modifier just by turning it. With the handle type you have to remove the S2 bracket release the tension on the plate and rotate it to where you think it will line up and re-attach the modifier if you're wrong you have to take the modifier off again and start all over.
    The only small gripe I have with the Strobepro is that there should be a velcro strip on the modifier to tighten it up thus reducing it's profile, when not in use. This helps immensely when walking with it on the streets.

    Innovative and reasonably priced!

    The Strobepro Rapid Snap Octa makes working with a large light bank easy! No more struggling with support rods and speedrings, the Strobepro snaps easily into place and we’re shooting. Highly recommended!

    Nice build quality

    Nice strong fabric and seams, with a sturdy metal mount.
    Can fold it with both diffusion fabric ang grid installed, so its rapid do deploy on location.
