    Customers like the quality of the camera stage lighting modifier. They mention it's well-made, holds up as well as the much higher priced brands, and is well-built enough for the money. The fabric seems to be thicker and stronger, and it'll last quite a while. That said, some complain that it tears down in 15 seconds and that the joints were damaged.

    Customers like the lighting of the camera stage lighting modifier. They mention that it gives a nice soft light, produces a good quality of light, and leaves a catch light in the eyes. The umbrella diffuses the light nicely, and is a big light source for flash photography. It provides a quick and effective way to soften the light on the face, and the inside reflects light as well. It's also good at transmitting light, so customers have to reduce their flash units.

    Beware this is the old hex style
    This does not work with the newer a Westcott line of strobes. FJ200 FJ400. The newer umbrellas use a round shaft. I improvised with a round shaft from an old long drill bit and a washer. Not worth sending back for the $21.
