Perché non creiamo un gruppo magmod Italia??
The fact that photography and video lights are getting affordable for the use they offer amazes me every time !!! Amazing video quality !!!!!!
i really love the celebration
Thanks for your videos, it's a pleasure to watch them, theory, practice and detail to the right point! Keep it up!
I find this channel very useful for photographers like me. I always learn something from every video of Mr. Radhakrishnan. His ways of explaining things are quite simple and easy to understand. Thanks a lot for this lovely video about the latest light modifier from Magmod. The Holi celebration pictures taken by using Magbox were amazing. Planning to buy this product soon.
Thank you so much for your review and test pictures. I was debating whether or not I need to buy the focus diffuser, when there really isn’t that much of a difference between the two. Save me a few bucks and I appreciate that thank you

Thank you for this great video!! You sell it better and more comprehensively!! Best educational video on the Magmod system!! I own parts of it and you've sold me on the rest! Thank you!! Aloha from Maui!
😀🙏👍
Brilliantly captured the festive occasion, thank you Sir.
🙏🙏🙏
Thanks to pixel village..... 😍😍. NO one can do such as thing to do..... this is a great effort.
Thank you soooooo much sir and the pixel team.
Easy, simple yet effective delivery. Another great video
Thank you Sir... 🙏
I love the concept..i love magmod. Wish they made it bigger
Excellent review. Simple tutorial in a real-life situation. I was wanting to see a shoot with a focus diffuser and its effects. Luckily happened upon your video. Also learned two people can use one box. Very clever. Thank you for this tutorial. Beautiful work.
🙏🙏🙏
My best Channel photography in my blood
I find this new Magmod iteration slightly ridiculous and, in a way, it went full circle. People started the whole strobist movement, use of compact flashes and MagMod EXACTLY in order to save money, shoot quickly and travel light in contrast to robust and expensive studio strobes. Yet in the end, this is where it all lead us: instead of simply using a portable studio strobe with a dedicated octabox, putting that on a lightstand and shooting away, you gotta buy 2 Godox AD200s, the adapter to connect them up, a ridiculously overpriced Magmod octa (how heavy is that bloody thing?) and the clumsy S-mount system to make it work... By then you are at what, $1 200?! Why not just use a battery-powered strobe with a regular softbox then? Its neither cheaper, nor lightweight, nor portable anymore...
Yes. You have a point there 👍
Thank you for saving my $1200..

I’m with you. Although i do like the idea of magnets, i couldn’t bring myself to pay that much when i can get an entire kit with a higher light output for half the cost
Magmod box is $180, you can use regular speed lights instead of the AD200's. Where did the $1200 figure come from?
Pixel Village is one of my favorite channels and I enjoy watching the videos which give a lot of innovative ideas to take my photography to next level. I wholeheartedly thank you for making such lovely video of this unique product called Mag Box. The images of Holi celebration which you have clicked by using this product are awesome. I also enjoyed watching you getting drenched in Holi colors.
😃🙏🙏🙏
super lovely b-rolls, coverage and those stills were lit ! i loved it sir!
Loved this episode!
Great review! Just got mine today thanks to this video!
Much love from Africa Kenya
OUTSTANDING!
The Tamron lenses are incredibly sharp!!! And the mag box looks amazing!
I have the same product.. its soooo worth the money and great for on the go photography
Can you please share your experience with this. It seems overpriced but it seems you thoroughly enjoy using it and found it good value. It would be awesome to hear your observations. This product looks good but i find it difficult to stomach the pricing, anyway that's just me. It will be great to hear from you.
Regards
Its little pricey at the moment but ofcourse it saves a lot of time to set things when you're at location. Great video as always
Well done, sir. I really enjoy your videos. Subscribed.
I admire your honesty that you left it on the viewer to decide whether he or she wants to endorse this or not. I saw an advertisement from future forward and it stated the price of the pro kit to be around 37,000. Honestly speaking i find the price quite discouraging for a 2 ft octagonal softbox. 1 godox ad200 =₹19,500, 1 s bracket = ₹1,200, 1 godox sb ue 80 = ₹3,500 plus a gel kit = ₹500
Total cost is approximately ₹25,000. And you can buy a carry bag for all these.
The godox umbrella type bowens mount softboxes are a dream to setup. It opens up and closes like a simple umbrella, you can leave both the diffusers and the grid on. Magmod needs to work on the pricing. Personally, i wont invest into something of this sort.
Exactly my thoughts plus if i have bigger light such as ad400pro i have to spend another 3000rs for the speedring
@@fragiledj yupp. The godox ad s7 is a damn good octagonal softbox for ad200. It works great for outdoor portraits. I have shot some full body portraits with it and it performs really well. Magbox has a fresnel type diffuser and this is the unique thing thats amazing. It acts like a grid but doesnt cut light output like a grid. It directs the light from magbox straight ahead and this is the only thing that will make the magbox an option for the wedding photograpers who shoot with uwa lenses.
@@saffronfalcon yeah i have it too and it really helped me in few situation and i realized it wasn't a bad investment after all.
@@fragiledj i bought it from Amazon for ₹1890 and i also bagged a godox sb ue 120 with grid for ₹3100! It must have been some amazon glitch because even in chandni chowk Delhi sb ue 120 was available @₹3800
It's definitely overpriced. I appreciate that it is very high quality. But it's a small softbox and for the same money, I could get several softboxes in different sizes with the S-Type clamp.
Hello sir. I've been following your videos for a while. Before I ask my question, let me mention what most of them might already been mentioning.... But it's just for my satisfaction to say that all your videos are truly awesome and informative.
That being said, many of ameture photographers like me have no idea on technicality and usage of lighting equipment. Like what are the different features in a flash, what are it's settings and their effects on a photograph and so on....
So, it would be really greatful if you could do a small introductory session on flashes and their technicalities.
Thanks a lot for giving whatever you already gave us.
🙏🙏🙏
Working on it. Please stay tuned. 😊🙏
@@PIXELVIILAGE whoa!!!
Didn't expect such a fast reply. Thank you so much for both the reply and consideration of my request.
Pure joy to watch! Really loved this! 😍
Thank you so much for making our Holi memorable ❤️
Thank you sir for your review.i was looking for a softbox
Hai sir really the video was helpful
I hve a doubt can I use simplex speed light
Is one suffient for a group wedding pixs
Will tat produce sufficient light to spread
I think so. If you are using your Speed Light with MagBox, then you should use the Fabric Diffuser. Cheers...
Sir ye product India me kaha aur kab miliga sir
Description में ये खरीदने का लिंक दिया हुआ है।
I've really come to enjoy your very informative presentations over the last year. Thank you. I love MagMod products and I'm very interested in the MagBox kit. May I ask how yours was ripped (see 2:16 & 3:45)? Do you feel it ripped easily, or was it an unfortunate accident that would have ripped any softbox?
Thank you for your feedback. 🙏
We received a brand new MagBox and it was not a damaged one. Nor it got damaged during the shoot. I am not sure where you saw it! 🙏
@@PIXELVIILAGE They're probably talking about the weird orange looking piece of fabric near the back side by the spots where the gray lines are separating each octabox side.
@@StrongerThanOceans21 Yes, exactly. See the 2:16 and 3:45 time references. About 4-5" above the magRing along the gray seam of the MagBox. All other reviewers, including yourself, talk about how sturdy it is...which I believe. So I was curious how it happened, if indeed it was torn, so your followers can potentially avoid the same situation. Surprised nobody else commented on it yet. Keep up the great videos!
Actually 5:23 is the best view. Interesting...appears to be a line of stitching where the yellow meets the black. Maybe a patch job by MM?
I found an answer from MagMod: the yellow patch is actually a tab that you can hold on to as you put your MagBox on and remove it from the MagRing. I'm disappointed Pixel Village didn't take the time to review their video and respond accordingly.
Sir i am from Pakistan and i watched all your vedios and i learn many things.....Peace n Love from PAKISTAN
Really happy to hear that. Peace...🙏🙏🙏
What's a good portable stand that will work well with the 24" Octa?
I was waiting for a video u took time its worth it
Sir could you do a video on best flashes to carry while traveling
Wow thank you for sharing your culture let a alone the magbox. Could you share a link explaining your holli celebration. I want to know more.
Excellent review. Best I’ve seen.
😇🙏🙏🙏
URGENT: hi the speedring for Bowens is not size-match with Godox AD400 and AD600 pro! also with AD200 double adaptor as well as other Bowen products! only fixed on Godox AD600B the old version. I noticed that 3 PINS on your product is bigger than Bowen standard for other modifiers such as softboxes and beauty dishes! and not in the right distances from each other in the circle to clip and fix! please advise. thank you
Beautifully captured 👍
You are superb I just love your photography
Shots looked still too harsh for a softbox imo, I think the focus diffuser is not as nice as the fabric diffuser?
Interesting that you mounted the flash and were all set to go then dismantled them to show how the pistol grip worked, saying how well it holds the weight of the full assembly....but didn't show it with any weight.
Dear friend, the whole shoot was done with the MagBox with 2 AD200s mounted on it. And it was coupled on to the stand using the MagShoe only! 🙏
I love those colorful types of images
Super sir thanks
I find that you are using two Godox AD200 in the Magmod.
Are speed light like Yongnuo YN685 not powerful enough .
You can use them. But they are not as powerful as AD200.
Did you use TTL or manual flash taking the event pictures?
Society where yoi live is just superb
Amazing pictures Sir.
Sir were both the ad200s set to full power ? What were the flash settings for the photo shoot. have seen some shutter speeds were as low as 1/60 so i was wondering what the settings were. Thanks sir. Each new video is setting a new benchmark. Kudos to the team
The flashes were set to TTL mode. So, it was going as per the Camera readings. 🙏
Sir,
Happy Holi and loved the video on Magbox, I would love to learn under your guidance...
After a long time sir
can you send me the information to this festival. I would love to attend next year, great video
Here you go...
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holi#:~:text=Holi%20is%20celebrated%20at%20the,February%20of%20the%20Gregorian%20calendar.
Great video, thanks so much for sharing!
Radhakrishnan Sir, You Rock!
great photos 👍
excellent presentation sir ji
Did you get the wording wrong on the timeline of 12:08?
it looks like the focus diffuser has a wider spread of light and the fabric has a narrow spread of light.
Sir i really like your photography
Cool video
Great video
Very Nice & informative video. Once again friendly & brilliant presentation.
BGM is awesome , Photography and even explaination is good 5*
Such a great review of MagMod,
I enjoy your content. Continued Success!
Happy Holi

Kindly please also share where to buy Godox products apart from going to Chandni Chowk .

PIXEL VIILAGE I am asking about godox flashes not magmod
Lovely
Brilliant!
Does the magmod mag grip work with godox v1???
What kind of camera did you use when taking pictures during the event? I really love your picture output. I love watching all of your video tutorials.. Damn! Photography GOD is what you are! 👏👌
Thank you for your Kind words. 🙏 We use Nikon D850 and D500 with Samyang VDSLR lenses for our filming. 😊🙏
@@PIXELVIILAGE Thank you MASTER! 😘
😃🙏🙏🙏
Cool music!

Beautiful video Sir. ❤️
Video bahot hi achha ha..Par ye product bahut mahenga.he..Sir request saste product se achhi photography kese kare ashi bhi video banaye.....
The photos which you took in this video have a nice bokeh panoramic effect, could you some tips to get the effects!!!
Hey sir!!,u just inspire me to improve my photography
Thanks ... Super presentation ......best photography
Lovely sir u rock always
New video !!!! 🙌🙌
Wow 👍👍👍👌
Viilage?
LOOKING GOOD😍
So how long did it take to clean off the color powders off the equipment and did you put clear plastic bags to protect the equipment. That softbox looks too clean to have been used in the festival
We've been extra careful! 🙏
Hi. Can you do a video on using ct gels and kelvin adjustments? I’d love to hear you explain it.
Hello Sir,
A big thanks to you and your team for doing this all stuff. It really helps me a lot. I learn so many things from your channel it is very easy to understand and I have a tried some of your tips it really improves my photography. Every detail is helpful about Flash, Tripods, Softbox, Gimbals, RAW VS JPEG...ect
On a separate note, I am not a professional photographer but its one of my passion.
One request to you sir can you make review video on Canon 80D.
My best wishes and regards to you and your channel for making information very easy to understand.
Thank you for your comment. I shall try 🙏👍😊
@@PIXELVIILAGE Thank you so much for your reply, Sir.
Is a 24" size octabox the right size? Some say its too much of a hard light.
Definitely will be harder than bigger sources. It's Physics. 🙏😊
I have a question: the maggrip is absolutely necessary to attach my flashes, right?
I Love your videos sir..
Nice...
Awesome ❤️
Do you still have to add magmod kit attached on the flash for it to be stable?
MagBox kit comes with the SoftBox, Speed Ring which can accomodate 2 flashes, and a Handgrip cum light-Stand Mount. Flash goes into the speed ring. And they don't bear the weight. I hope I answered your question.
@@PIXELVIILAGE Thanks.
great dear
The Magbox with the AD200PRO Fresnel head definitely has a noticeable hotspot. It's weird that there are no sample images of this on the internet. I've seen multiple reviews of the Magbox and they always talk about it like the shape of the softbox somehow removes the hotspot - total bs... If anyone is curious I can send them my test images that shows the nasty square shaped hotspot in the middle of the softbox
Thank u so much sir i love u so much
I wish it had an inner diffuser!
The quality of light is still harsh with focus diffuser.
That's exactly what will happen if you 'Focus' the light.
If 2 people need to use same magbox, they should have same brand of camera?
Not at all.
@@PIXELVIILAGE Kindly let me know, i have Sony camera and my friend has Canon camera. But Godox lights are brand specific.
please guide me, how can we achieve this?
@@YH-td6mz Lights are not. But the Godox TTL Triggers are Brand specific.
@@PIXELVIILAGE I have Godox v860 ver 2 that is brand specific. So like pro lights like ad200 or other are not brand specific.
You are amazing
