Photek Octabank 55" Octagon Softbox

The Photek Octabank is a 55-inch octagonal softbox built for portrait and commercial photographers who need broad, wrap-around illumination. Its silver interior and removable diffusers shape light evenly across the subject, reducing harsh shadows for professional results.

Light quality under sustained sessions

The silver lining maintains consistent reflectivity during long shoots, while the removable interior and front diffusers let you adjust softness without moving the fixture. Eight fiberglass rods with metal tips keep the octagon rigid so the light spread stays uniform from the first frame to the last.

Weight, portability and heat management

At 4.5 lbs the modifier is light enough for on-location work and packs into a 38-inch carry case for compact transport. The open-front design allows continuous airflow around the flash head, preventing heat buildup during extended use. No adapter is included, so buyers needing a specific mount must source it separately.

Questions about this item

How hot does the 55" Octabank get during all-day studio sessions?

The softbox itself is passive fabric and fiberglass, so it does not generate heat; only the attached flash head produces warmth.

Which flash-head insert adapter do I need to mount this Octabank on my strobe?

The unit ships with a metal speed ring, but the specific insert adapter for your flash brand is sold separately.

Will the 55" Octabank balance on my older light stand without tipping?

At 4.5 lbs plus your flash head, the assembly is lightweight enough for most medium-duty stands, but verify your stand's load rating.
