Title: Mounting Elinchrom softbox on dynalite head
Post by: pixjohn on March 09, 2012, 12:14:45 pm

Anyone have a easy way of mounting an Eelinchrom softbox onto a  Dynalite head?

I purchased a few Deep octa boxes that come with its own speed ring and was told they might fit the Dynalite head by the distributor, but they don't. I drilled out the rivets on one of the holders to open it up and remove the Elinchrom adapter and wanted to replace it with a Dynalite adapter from my Chimera speed ring, but it will not fit. I thought about bolting it to the outside of the speed ring but wanted to see if anyone else had any ideas?

Is it that the diameter is wrong? You could just cut the ring down to the proper diameter. More discussion can be seen here:
