The Godox SB-FW 35x160cm Softbox is a passive light modifier. Its operation primarily involves understanding how its components affect light quality:

• Softening Light: Use both the internal and external diffusers for the softest, most even light output. Removing one or both diffusers will result in harder light with more contrast.
• Controlling Light Spill: The included honeycomb grid attaches to the front of the softbox. It narrows the beam angle of the light, preventing light from spilling onto unwanted areas and providing more directional control. This is particularly useful for hair lights, rim lights, or isolating subjects.
• Позициялоо: Experiment with the distance and angle of the softbox relative to your subject to achieve desired lighting effects. Closer distances generally result in softer light, while further distances create harder light.
