Yes
I was looking at the bessel 60cm speedlight softbox and wondered if anyone had used one and what your opinion of this is?

The Ezybox looks great but very expensive for what it is.
 
I've just Google'd it and it looks pretty much exactly the same as the one I have. Basically a cheap Ezybox, only it doesn't have an internal diffuser.

I have had no issues with it, it's pretty good quality considering the low price I paid for it, and it works as it should.
 
Could you add an inner diffuser with velcro or something? I take it the inner diffuser is a big part of the soft lighting you get with the Ezybox.
 
Those two look the same (and the same price if you look for the Zone 1 (UK) version of Cotswoldphoto's), but the first seems to have a better ballhead adaptor. :thinking:

The bit about the upgraded ballhead is a red herring, that was only required for the 32" version. I'm using the original ones from the very first version of the Chinese copies on my genuine Lastolite Ezyboxes and I've never had a problem with them.

Yes you can, I've got a load of the internal diffusers - if you need one drop me a note of your details and I'll pop one in the mail :thumbs:

OK thanks.

Don't those two softboxes include diffusers?
 
Thanks for all the recommendations guys.

Graham i'll certainly let you know if i do need one. Thanks a lot.
