Introducing the Glow SterlingFibre™ silver lining, a revolutionary quilted fabric interior that optimizes and maximizes your light output; no hot spots, no light loss, and wonderful for all skintones.

Flip the chamber open, slip out the old ring and close the cover on the new connecter. Faster. The most extraordinary speedring swap in the industry. Perhaps the best silver interior finish found in any softbox, with little or no output dark spots or hotspots. The Glow brand is synonymous with flash modifier excellence, the most coveted line of light shapers today. Never before has constructing, deploying, and modifying a Softbox of any brand been simpler. Gone are the hesitations to use the best lighting effect due to the struggle to build a perfect Softbox. The ParaSnap Octa 36 NewGen Softbox with SterlingFibre™ is ready for action in a snap. Fastest. Exclusivity is a rarity, but Glow has done it again! We call our exciting new advanced interior design, SterlingFibre™ . The heart of any Softbox is the space that reflects the flash within the box. The silvered surfaces sees the light that faces it. The superior quilted interior means ultimate output. Typically, the parabolic nature of an umbrella or rectangular bank light cannot capture all of the strobe burst without including dark spots in the reflective surface. With SterlingFibre™ , little light is lost as the wafered surface picks up all of the monolight’s flash burst and brings it to focus outward to the front diffusers. The ParaSnap Octa 36 NewGen Softbox with SterlingFibre™ , with output as no other. Para Snappy. Even if the ParaSnap NewGen did not open and close so quickly… Even if the ParaSnap NewGen did not have a quick exchange speedring system… The superior SterlingFibre™ silver lining treatment is worth the purchase by itself! Tech Note: The SterlingFibre™ Silver Lining is a significant advantage. Unlike any other silver interiors, the efficiency of the parabolic shape and the position of the flashhead is less critical due to the innovative silver fabric design. Take a close look at the surface. It’s not smooth. The wafer quilted bump pattern captures light from all angles, including the facing elements. No dark spots arise. All of the output from the monolight is captured by the bowl, projected forward through the optionally employed diffusion layers. SterlingFibre™ eliminates blind spots and creates the most efficient parabolic Softbox in the photo universe. The exquisite light - unbeatable The fast deployment - unbelievable and the ability to interchange and to swap out a speed ring - unique. Light shaping has never been so convenient.
