Customer Reviews

LOVE IT!
I currently have the Lumiquest promax system and two sto-fen omnibounces in my bag. The lumiquest gets the most use out of any light modifier I have owned. First off, I love the image quality achieved when I use the 80/20 bounce, with and without the diffuser. The gold card I use outdoors for fill flash (nice effect) the white card I use a lot in doors with high ceilings and the silver card I use in real low light to give sharp highlights (weddings). This is a great modifier that does the job of so many other tools that would never fit in a camera bag. When you're through with the Promax, it folds into a wallet and goes right in your bag. SWEET! Well worth twice the price.

Works
This works great. I use this and a Sto-Fen. Sto-Fen is better in some instances, especially if speed is needed or switching from plain flash and diffused flash is needed quickly.

But if you plan to keep a bounce / diffuser on through out shoot, then this does the job.

As far as the velcro tabs go on Flash, don't do it.
Get the Velcro strap for it, or
I think a Sto-Fen (do an amazon search for it) that you trim the top off and stick Velcro stickers to the Sto-Fen would work better than strap.
It would be more stable and less prone to slipping.

Also in those times that you need to prep everything and start shooting quickly. You could get the mod'd Sto-Fen on faster than the strap and get shooting in half the time. Yes we are talking seconds faster but that could mean the difference of a great shot or no shot.

ProMax System
I now use the ProMax system exclusively for all of my indoor shots. My favorite for indoor shots with low ceilings is the 80/20. It helps achieve a more natural exposure than direct flash and fills about 95% of the shadows that regular bounce/direct flash produces.
