Eu aqui quase me matando sofrendo pra desmontar ele, aí eu pensei vou no RUclips alguém deve ter feito o unboxing ou review desse softbox foi a onde que graças encontrei seu vídeo, já mereceu minha curtida!
Wonderful video, thanks so much. Quick and maybe stupid questions. My QR-P90 has a zipper on one of the sides of the softbox, do you know what's that for?
There needs to be a Bowens > Godox mount adapter. Not understanding this QR-P70/P90.. The 'insert' is smaller than 6" so it's a one-off and impractical. Godox seems all over the place with their products. I don't support Godox for just making money, I support companies that consider its customers. Godox has left the building on customer support, customer needs and appreciation.
Maybe in a studio, but for me, impractical/never for on-location work. Why? Form factor: it's heavier, bulky, and takes longer to set up/use. For portability, I'll go with umbrella style soft-boxes, sometimes gridded, etc. My only (big) parabolic light is a rental I occasionally use: 84" Silver. The kind where welder's eye shields are recommended.
I tend to agree here. Umbrella modifiers are much easier to setup and use on-location, so long as your light supports it. Some battery operated flash units are too large or the stem of the umbrella are too short. The newer Godox UB range of softboxes (UB-130S, UB-160W etc..) are great in terms of size, affordability and portability.
Great video! I am curious if know what the difference between the Godox V1 round head flash for canon and the Godox V1-C 2.4G TTL HSS Round Head Li-ion Camera Flash Speedlite Fr Canon EOS.
Yes, the new QR-PT series are more compact versions of the older QR-P series. We'd recommend them for food photography, especially if you're shooting on-location a lot.
They work for both photography flash strobes or continuous lights that feature a Bowens mount. Just double check the mount on your light is Bowens. From there it depends on how you would like to modify the light. Popular shapes are octagon or parabolic softboxes for a nice even and wide throw of light.
It's just a matter of using sheer force to bend the rods out from the softbox end (not speedring end). The rods are flexible so don't be afraid to use a bit of force.
We're unfamiliar with the Beautybox 85s but in terms of the AD-S85 vs QR-P90 a major deciding factor will be what light you'll be using it with. The AD-S85S uses a Godox mount which only works with select Godox lights whereas the QR-P90 is a Bowens mount which is a more common style of mount. The AD-S85S will be the best option if you do have a light with a Godox mount and if you want to prioritise portability as its packed size makes it easier to carry around. The QR-P90 would be a better option for longevity as it works with any Bowens mount light and its mechanism is quite durable compared to light modifiers with umbrella styled set up. Hope this helps!
Hey Dave, the V1 is still well powered in comparison to some continuous lights that mesh well with this softbox such as the Godox SL60. You should still be able to achieve great results with the V1 + QR-P70 for things such as food/product/half body portrait photography. A consideration is that you may need to play around with light positioning and distance from your subject. It may not be enough for larger subjects like full body shots though.
Is this the Glow models for Godox now? My biggest complaint is lack of quality assurance. Something is always wrong when I order and then the company never is available. I stopped buying the brand from overseas. The construction of this one looks cheap and not well made. Lots of wrinkles and ripples in the fabric which affects light output. I would be curious if you would perform a output test and see the differences if any. The inner or outer Diffuser where missing on my two 90PL boxes. The problem was also some where velcro and others where hooks so they are made differently. I just shop Adorama instead. Flashpoint or Glow brands
Similar to the Glow models, yes. In terms of quality for the price you pay you can't look past this new QR range or most Godox products for that matter. I know that here in Australia, the QR-P70 retails at $145 but the Glow EZ lock series starts at about $180 for the smaller size. The metal rods are a nice change, the material seems high quality and when left setup in a studio environment the wrinkles and ripples in the fabric tend to go away. An output test is an interesting idea and we may do this in the future. Thanks for watching!
sir i want to use multi purpose outdoor and indoor and couple shoots all shots i mean close ups and 3/4 and full shots usefully equal lighting 70mm is better or 85mm is better.....plz tell me im confusing to buy
That fabric seems wonky. I just picked this up and Im a bit upset that I can't close the back without at least one gap. It's like they didn't put enough fabric? I can most of them closed but on the last one its so tight a few more pop open. Do I just need to be more forceful? LOL
You can keep the external diffuser on to reduce downtime, but in most cases, it is likely that you may have to remove the inner diffuser during break-down. This is due to the way those are attached.
Great video. Nice and easy to follow. Very helpful. Thanks for sharing. 🙂
Glad it was helpful!

Sooooo Helpful!!! Thank You

thanks for presenting...
Hey sir, where can I buy the light and tripod ?
Depending on your location, try your local photographic equipment supplier or jump on our site www.hypop.com.au
Maybe in a studio, but for me, impractical/never for on-location work. Why? Form factor: it's heavier, bulky, and takes longer to set up/use.

Can you recommend a good umbrella style softbox? I want something very light and easy to setup.
I tend to agree here. Umbrella modifiers are much easier to setup and use on-location, so long as your light supports it. Some battery operated flash units are too large or the stem of the umbrella are too short. The newer Godox UB range of softboxes (UB-130S, UB-160W etc..) are great in terms of size, affordability and portability.

They are same flash. Different names
Friend, the new QR-PT has been released, would you recommend them for gastronomic photography?
Yes, the new QR-PT series are more compact versions of the older QR-P series. We'd recommend them for food photography, especially if you're shooting on-location a lot.
great video, I can use the S type adapter to use a speedlight
You can use an s-bracket
How can i clean the white sheets that comes with it mine came a stain when it arrived
Don't be afraid to give the diffuser a wash
Thank you so much, I do have a student question, can I use the parabolic 88 with my favorite flashlight AD400pro? Thanks for your help
Yes, you can! The AD400Pro comes with a detachable Bowens ring so will be compatible with the QR-P70
I am now confused which softbox is for which? Like which is for Video softbox and flash softbox?
They work for both photography flash strobes or continuous lights that feature a Bowens mount. Just double check the mount on your light is Bowens. From there it depends on how you would like to modify the light. Popular shapes are octagon or parabolic softboxes for a nice even and wide throw of light.
Hello, is there any specific way to disassemble the 70x100 softbox? It is impossible to disassemble it, thanks in advance for the answer
It's just a matter of using sheer force to bend the rods out from the softbox end (not speedring end). The rods are flexible so don't be afraid to use a bit of force.
Any one know where to buy the inner and outer diffuser only?
Usually you country's local Godox distributor should be able to help out with spare parts. We do so here in Australia!
Cant decide between AD s85s and qr 90 and jine beautybox 85s.. Any suggestions?
We're unfamiliar with the Beautybox 85s but in terms of the AD-S85 vs QR-P90 a major deciding factor will be what light you'll be using it with. The AD-S85S uses a Godox mount which only works with select Godox lights whereas the QR-P90 is a Bowens mount which is a more common style of mount.

Hope this helps!
Can I mount it onto a s2 Bowens mount bracket?
You sure can!
Hello, does it fit the ad 600 pro lighting?😊
Hey there, yes it does. The AD600Pro is compatible with any modifier that uses the Bowens mount.
Anyone here have experience with the v1 paired with this softbox? If so, was the flash powerful to fill the qr-p70 ?
Hey Dave, the V1 is still well powered in comparison to some continuous lights that mesh well with this softbox such as the Godox SL60.
You should still be able to achieve great results with the V1 + QR-P70 for things such as food/product/half body portrait photography.

There is no better, it’s preference
Do I need an adapter for Amaran 200x?
No, they're both Bowens mount so this softbox should suit the Amaran 200X
That fabric seems wonky. I just picked this up and Im a bit upset that I can't close the back without at least one gap. It's like they didn't put enough fabric? I can most of them closed but on the last one its so tight a few more pop open. Do I just need to be more forceful? LOL
I have the same problem with minds but I have the QR-P90, and it is not easy to break down
I just bought this softbox. I buy all my toys from China.
Sir can I add ad600pro light? This softbox
I think you need godox ring adapter for bowen as AD are smaller mount
I'm want to buy ad300 so im researching that at the moment
AD600pro has a Bowens mount so yes, this will work with that.
is it a good idea to use it with Godox V1 ?
Yes, when paired with the Godox S2 mount it'll be the perfect pair!
How can we use this softbox with Ad 300 pro flash
Hey there, you can use the Godox S2 bracket with the AD300 Pro. We have a video on the bracket here: ruclips.net/video/ZiLWlTMsZd4/видео.html
Should I be taking off the diffusers while breaking it down?
You can keep the external diffuser on to reduce downtime, but in most cases, it is likely that you may have to remove the inner diffuser during break-down. This is due to the way those are attached.
