Photographer Jim Tincher of Lexington, Kentucky discusses the features of the Zeppelin Para 47 softbox in this Westcott Real Deal Review.
The Zeppelin Deep Parabolic modifier is available in 35, 47, and 59 inch models. All of these modifiers feature a vast profile creating a stunning, wrap-around light output. Each Zeppelin para-softbox is equipped with high-quality construction and needlework, 16 heat-resistant rods, a 1/2-stop inner diffusion panel with a 1/2-stop center dot (to eliminate hot spots), a single sheet outer diffusion panel, and a travel case.
The Zeppelin Speedring Bracket is available for purchase. The Zeppelin Speedring Bracket is available in versions compatible with Bowens, Profoto, Balcar, and Elinchrom style light heads. This heavy-duty bracket not only provides quick mounting for these large modifiers, but also serves as additional weight support. The Zeppelin is equipped with a zippered entry point, serving as a second light head mounting option when paired with an additional light stand. When partnered with a Westcott boom arm, a third mounting option is achieved through the Zeppelin’s rear ventilation cover. Internal mounting methods are optimized with the available Zeppelin Deflector Plate, which eliminates light spill.
Awesome job Jim! This makes me want the Zeppelin pretty bad now.
