Overview

The Neewer NS16S is a 24" x 35" (60 x 90cm) rectangular strip softbox engineered for photographers and videographers who need reliable, portable light modification. Its glossy silver interior lining maximizes light output while maintaining neutral color rendering, and the rectangular shape produces a naturally flattering light spread well-suited to portraits, product shots, and live streaming setups. Two removable diffusion panels soften the output further, while the included honeycomb grid narrows the beam for more controlled, directional lighting when needed.

What sets the NS16S apart is its quick-folding mechanism. Four highly resilient ribs click into place for setup and release with dedicated buttons for breakdown, eliminating the frustration of traditional softbox assembly. The mounting plate and frame are constructed from nylon alloy, delivering a lightweight unit that resists rust and stands up to the demands of daily use. A standard Bowens mount provides compatibility with a wide range of studio strobes and LED lights. When the session is over, the softbox collapses down to 28.3" x 7.5" x 7.5" and slides into the included drawstring carry bag for easy transport.
