Westcott Rapid Box Switch Octa Speedlite Kit 26

Rapid Box Switch Octa Kit

The Westcott Rapid Box Switch Octa Speedlite Kit delivers a single-light softbox solution built for portrait photographers who work on location. The 26-inch octagonal softbox produces broad, even illumination suited to headshots and half-length portraits. A deflector plate is included to shape the fall-off and create a beauty-dish quality when desired. Everything packs into the supplied carry case for fast transport between shoots.

13 interchangeable mount inserts

The kit ships with 13 interchangeable light-mount inserts that cover the industry's most popular strobes, speedlites and monolights. This breadth lets you attach the softbox to existing flash units without buying brand-specific adapters. The umbrella-inspired aluminium frame collapses in seconds, so setup and teardown stay quick whether you are moving between rooms or travelling to a venue. No additional mounting hardware is required beyond the inserts provided.

Eight-foot stand and deflector plate

The included 8-foot light stand gives ample height for standing-subject portraits while remaining stable on uneven floors. The Rapid Box Deflector Plate sits inside the softbox to bounce light forward, increasing contrast and producing the signature circular catch-lights associated with beauty dishes. Photographers needing multiple simultaneous light sources or larger modifier diameters will need additional kits.
