Elinchrom has created the 22 x 30″ Snaplux Quick-Open Rectabox to give time-pressed photographers a modifier that combines the ease and set up speed of umbrellas with the directionality and light quality of a softbox.

The softbox is an ideal shape that makes it a go-to for portraits, products, fashion – almost anything. To offer beam control and to prevent spill light, Elinchrom includes a 30-degree fabric grid to facilitate selective lighting to light areas that you want to and keep light from areas that you don’t want illuminated. The softbox has a silver interior to maximize output and a removable front diffuser that can be left on as it usually is or removed for a punchy high contrast look. The Snaplux Recta comes with a bag for storage and transport.

Snaplux speed rings are required and sold separately. They’re available for 6 strobe brands including: Elinchrom (full size), Elinchrom Q-Mount, Profoto OCF, Bowens S-Mount, AlienBee, Balcar, and Broncolor.
