This softbox is almost perfect. The only thing is that once you add the softbox to the tube light it’s not possible to add the clap so that you can attach it to a stand. If it could be possible to have a hole in the middle so that the clamp can be attached it would be perfect

I bought the TL60's thinking "Neewer will probably make a soft box for these soon" and that's exactly what happened. These softboxes are great to direct and soften the light. Very happy!

As many other reviewers have pointed out about this product is that it does do the job. It won't win any awards on style points but it does work. To me, there's no real need for the diffusion sheet. It works, for sure, but it reduces the light output so much that it's not worth it. The lens on the light itself has its own diffusion so this just softens it even more.The glaring issue is if you want to actually mount the light using the included clamp for the TL-60. So, if you plan to mount this light on anything other than the inluded 1/4-20 female threads at the end, you're going to run into an issue where the clamp is simply not compatible with the soft box. I've attached a couple of images to demonstrate the issue.If you offset the mounting clamp enough, you can still use the softbox. However, if you plan to clamp the light dead center...well, you're dead in the water without cutting a hole in the back of the softbox.At the end of the day, I do appreciate Neewer attempting to put a real softbox on the TL-60. It's not perfect and could definitely benefit from some real-world user input prior to release, but it's a good start. Hopefully they listen to customers and revise future versions.Neewer is a great brand and I feel like the more user input they receive, the better their products will become.

I don't think I've ever been disappointed with anything sold by neewer. This soft box is well made and easy to use and store.

richtig tolle ergänzung! funktioniert wie sie soll ich klein verstaubar und toll durchdacht. einziger haken: die LED-Klemme zum "aufhängen" der Lampe funktioniert leider nciht mehr mit softbox da diese doch zu groß ist. eine zugeaufte magicclamp geht aber.

I like this product, that being said it is less sturdy than other options might be but that is because it is collapsable and that makes this a good option if you need to pack up your gear and go somewhere as opposed to only having a fixed studio. This is another case of NEEWER making a good product at a decent cost.

There's a catch to it being flimsy and that it is foldable and portable. It won't win any fashion shows and looks weird if you use it in the background with the tube light but it definitely does the job by adding softness and control...for the most part. The downside is the grid is pretty wide. It is, however, universal because I used it on my Sutefoto 2ft tube light and it fit nicely!

Die Lieferung war pünktlich. Das Originalsiegel auf der Umverpackung war gebrochen und mit einem zweiten Klebestreifen überklebt. Bei beiden Produkten, die ich erworben habe. Die Produkte waren gefühlt trotzdem originalverpackt (in Klarsichtfolien) in der Umverpackung.Der Lichtformer muss erst zusammengebaut werden. Was nicht besonders schwierig ist, dank der Klettverschlüsse. Das geht schnell und schon kann man eine TL60 einsetzen. Die Öffnungen/Aussparungen sind genau auf die Bedürfnisse der TL60 abgestimmt, daher wird die Bedinung mit anderen Lichtstäben vermutlich nicht ganz so praktisch sein.Preis/Leitsung: in OrdnungKaufempfehlung: ja

I saw this on Amazon Vine. Neewer said this is ONLY for THEIR TUBES...I took a gamble, because I use Nanlites Pavotube's...while not a perfect fit...IT WORKS and I FINALLY have a softbox for the Nanlite 15x!!! Nanlite doesn't quite offer a softbox option for their tubes, and charges 3x as much for accessories like their grid that doesn't include diffusion.First things first, this is a budget softbox and does look like it, but it's STURDY enough. Sadly, unlike the Nanlite grid, you cannot adjust the width of the Neewer's grid beam by closing in the sides. However the Nanlite version doesn't offer a diffusion sheet and costs $50 more. The included diffusion sheet is a bit thin and you can see the grid and all the wrinkles in the grid through it, which may turn off some, but you FINALLY have a good and quick way to soften your tube lights and it's super affordable and super light weight. The handle on the back...if you trust the stitching...can be used to hang the light potentially. I'd recommend screwing it in a clamp or a stand obviously. I tried using a ring clamp on the nanlite tubes and it still fit...a minor chore to get it in, but yes you can get a clamp in to screw your tube light.For Nanlite users, there will be about 3 inches extra room lengthwise, so one of the grid boxes will be blank, but you could just attach a handle, or one of those battery packs to get the full length and still have access to the controls. Did I mention there's a hole in the back so you can adjust the settings and it still LINES UP WITH NANLITE's controls. Yay.Anyway, sorry to yap about Nanlite in a Neewer product, but Neewer is shooting themselves in the foot, this IS USABLE with OTHER tube lights. It'll look a little quirky and may not be perfect, but it's USABLE and sturdy on Pavotubes.Good way to save $50 by skipping Nanlite's grid and getting a diffusion sheet included.

This paired up with the Neewer TL60 light stick does what it it designed for, the construction is strong, keeps any light bleed off back ground and keeps your attention on the subject ,highly recommend.

My experience with this diffuser is a bit of a mixed bag. Once installed, it does effectively diffuse the light, giving it a softer quality, and the grid enhances its directional nature. However, there's a significant drawback: the diffusion noticeably reduces the light output. Without any reflective material behind the diffusion layer, it feels like the brightness drops by around 30%, although I can't confirm this with a meter. While I typically appreciate Neewer products, this one didn't quite meet my expectations.Assembly can be a bit of a chore, and once set up, the structure feels somewhat flimsy. However, on the bright side, its less robust design allows it to fold up compactly, conveniently fitting into the TL60 case. At just $29, it's a budget-friendly option for adding diffusion to your lighting setup, despite its shortcomings.
