It comes in a big cardboard tube, doesn't it? Mine did. I got mine from fotoSENSE which as far as I can remember was about 20% cheaper than warehouseexpress, if you're willing to put up with bad comms from the company (delivery was fine, by courier)

DML wanted €450 excl delivery,ended up getting it of speedgraphic.co.uk €373 including delivery,,they can send the vinyl train still in the tube and theres a promotion on at the moment and their giving free bottletops with it there normally £65,so im happy with that,thanks for the help anyway guys

cambo_gueno - how long did you have to wait for it? I was reading some bad comments about fotosense service and they put me off from trying them...

ordered on Monday and had it on Thursday. I had read the feedback too and I was a bit uneasy about it, but I just rang them a few times after the order was placed, made sure that they were processing the order.

@cambo_gueno let us know how u get on with this lastolite, i'd be really interested to know what sort of lighting set up u have with it.

on different subject, does anyone here has any experience or own the Ezybox softbox?

I have the 38cm one and stand for my Nikon SB800. I've used it a good few times and it has performed well. Folds up nice and small aswell for storage.

I've had it since August and have been using it with 2 x lastolite 400w/s flashes - one for the hilite and the other with an umbrella. I haven't used it that much, but I did this for my mam of all her grandchildren and got stcstc to print it out on a blockmount (about 9" x 60"). Needless to say, I'm now No.1 son
