Post subject: | Speedring compatability with Photogenic Lights |
I have six Photogenic lights and would like to purchase the Folding FSB3240 with built in speedring. Will this work with my Photogenic lights or do I need some type of an adapter? Love the Parabolic umbrellas and would like to purchase the softboxes. |

You would need to change out the inner speedring. Here is a link to one that should work for you: http://www.porters.com/easy-open-soft-b ... ights.html |

I have a couple of bowens moonlights and i'm interested in buying the 86-inch Silver Parabolic Umbrella. Will it work with my lights or do i need to buy an adapter? |

The PLM's can be used on virtually any light, using the 7mm rod that is included. We do not offer a direct fit speedring option for Bowens. There may be an Elinchrome to Bowens adapter on the market, however I do not have any specific recommendations. |

Do you know of any other product that would enable me to attach Paul C Buff softboxes to my Photogenic StudioMax III lights? |

There may be an Elinchrome to Bowens adapter on the market, however I do not have any specific recommendations. Tech is referring to the speed ring style PLM. Assuming the Bowens lights will accept an 8mm umbrella shaft, the PLM straight 8mm shaft version (cheaper) should slide right in, like a standard umbrella. To my knowledge, Elinchrom is about the only flash that is limited to a 7mm max umbrella shaft. 8mm is pretty standard. |
