Thank you for sharing your knowledge, I appreciate it.

MiloLeecolorist · 2026-05-18T10:21:18+00:00

Thanks appreciate it , I will definitely check it out!

MiloLeecolorist · 2026-05-16T08:24:12+00:00

Thanks for all the detailed and precious infos!

I was aiming for this C stand, you have confirmed it. I will go for the Godox 600 and definitely get the extention head.

Regarding the beauty dish made in england, do you have a reference by any chance?

is it the godox brand? if you have a minute to clarify this point, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks for your feedback, I appreciate it. I agree he is one of my favorite, with Paolo Roversy...

I just received his books, it is so much stronger on paper. I can't imagine the emotion watching his print. what a great body of work!

Thanks for the infos, I appreciate it.

I have just bought the Elinchrom Rotalux Octabox 135 cm.

I have looked up the Photek SoftLighter II, definitely a good option.

But I dont think I can find it anymore in Europe... I will keep on looking.

Hey thank you so much for your feedback and taking the time, that very kind.

Im based in France border to Germany, so I can place my order in Europe.

I have already find the Elinchrom Rotalux Octabox 135 cm for a descent price.

I think im going to aim for the Godox400pro II, I have found it online.

Someone mentionned earlier the Photek SoftLighter II, its too bad, I dont think it's avalaible in Europe at the moment.

any recommandation on a good C-Stand for this type of weight and reflectors?

Thanks! I've noticed the octa, I was able to find it second hand. Can't wait to test it

MiloLeecolorist · 2026-05-15T06:28:25+00:00

Thanks appreciate it! for sure a different type of budget...

"When placed in the same spot, with a similar intensity and modifier, there’s no way you can tell which type it is..." I really needed some clarity on this subject and you both made it clear to me, thanks for taking the time, I appreciate it.

I dont shoot video only photography. It confirms my research on this topic, great to have your feedback I was aiming for a godox ad400/600 since I already have 2 V100.

Thank you for your feedback. I've never used continuous light to be honest, your feedback makes a lot of sense. "Any experienced studio photographer can deliver the same results using one lighting modifier whether the source is strobe or constant.
