Post subject:  Foldable Softboxes with Profoto

Hello,

I like AlienBees' Foldable Softboxes but I use Profoto.
Can anyone let me know how I can attach a Foldable Softbox to my Profoto? I guess I need a new speedring insert..

Thank you in advance!

I have yet to see an adapter to allow our softboxes to mount to Profoto heads. Prophoto part 505-551 is an adapter ring that would be used for this purpose, however i cannot find the outer diameter, so i cannot say if it fits our foldable boxes.

The 505-551 diameter is listed at 144mm, doesn't say whether it's inner or outer tho.

Either way, that would be too big to fit in the foldable box range, and likely why adapters do not exist, or are hard to find.
