The OctoDome® nxt: Extra Small Kit is a very powerful tool for achieving a distinctive look when used alone or with other lighting products. The small size and deep profile (approx. 18 inches across and 9 inches deep) makes it perform like a traditional parabolic reflector.
With its removable face and baffle, this kit can be used to achieve three distinct lighting styles for key and hair lighting applications: Specular (remove baffle and face), Softened (use baffle only), Diffused output (use both baffle and face).
The OctoDome® nxt is built with our heat resistant fabric and can be adapted, with optional speed ring, for use with our StarLite® tungsten fixture with lamps up to 500 watts.

Here's what the pros say...
January 23, 2017
On sunny summer days I sometimes carry a white, 42” circular light diffuser (16” folded) when photographing wildflowers. The one I use most is Photoflex
Having used Photoflex gear for over twenty five years, I have always relied on their excellent build quality and performance. All soft boxes, umbrellas and reflectors are color correct for perfect color temperature and made with state-of-the-art fabrics and construction. Very versatile for artistic lighting, Photoflex gear is also easy to set up and pack when shooting on location.
Photoflex was my first choice for light modifiers when I started building my own studio arsenal almost twenty years ago. I still have that first Medium Softbox, and use it often. Photoflex Octodomes produce wonderful light, and with a grid installed I find I can control almost any on-location lighting situation. Photoflex reflectors in my equipment case, too, have been with us the entire ride - doing their job as well as on Day One.
