I have 2 proline softboxes which I would like to use with my new to purchase Bowens flash units which have the S fitting connection.
Is it possible to purchase an adapter to make them fit and if so is it something like this
http://www.karlu.com/product_info.php?products_id=10507
As you can see from the image inside the ring are 4 raised lips at 90 degrees to each other and the internal diameter of the ring is 120mm whereas the one from Karlu say the diameter is 139mm
any help appreciated
If you cant see the speedring then it is here

Thanks Hugh, didn't know you could just get the speedring, any ideas of a good retailer to buy from rather than Ebay. I'm going to Focus on Imaging on Wednesday maybe there will be someone there
Thanks again

No idea off eBay but I've never had issues with the eBay ones

Showing out of stock at present - but these may be available at another retailer.

looks like most other suppliers have them at £20ish though - still not a bad price if it does the job, though the inner ring looks bolted into place so doesn't look as though it has the ability to rotate the 'box when mounted.

Where are you looking Paul for the other suppliers?? I dont mind it being fixed as long as it will connect properly
Thanks

Just googled interfit asa1000 for a look see, loads of suppliers like this one though none I've used, but Multiblitz only have a couple of suppliers in the UK.
