I'm looking for a folding/easy up Octa to fit profoto, in the region of 100cm diameter, and able to take a grid.

I've looked at Lencarta website, but the only one showing is 85cm and not available for Profoto fit

Elinchrom Deep Octa looks awesome, but can't take a grid. Does the Hooded Diffuser control light as well as a grid?

What other options are there? MUST be quick to put up/folding, well made, able to take a grid and around 100cm +/- 20cm

Thanks
 
My 85cm Profold Octa is great, 90cm across the points. It has an interchangeable mount. Worth double-checking with Garry - the website is not always 100% accurate ;)
 
Lighttools (honeycombgrids does too I think) do make grids for most of Elinchrom's range but they're stupendously expensive.

You could try to find a generic Chinese model and as long as it uses the most common speedring size the ones sold by Lencarta should fit but as Richard says it's worth asking Garry at Lencarta first.
 
Garry, can you confirm that the speed ring will work with the 85cm octa please?
Yes it will - just remove the 3 screws that hold the existing one and replace it with the Profold one
