FLEXFRAME
SOFTBOX
FOR PORTABLE FLASHES
USER MANUAL
2
The Vello FlexFrame Softbox for
Portable Flash diuses the light from
a speedlight and improves the tonal
quality illuminating the subject. The
removable front diuser can reduce
shadows and hot spots where the
shoe-mount flash creates unflattering
light harshness. Unique to this small
and portable softbox is the fiberglass
frame incorporating jointed rods for
quick setup and easy folding. A touch
fastener cinch strap is included for
securely mounting the softbox onto
the head of a portable flash unit. This
is a perfect tool for an intermediate or
professional photographer who wants to
put a new look into their photography.
