Elinchrom Rotalux
The signature range of EL softboxes

Construction
The Rotalux softbox is the best of its category
The rapid assembly Rotalux system is probably the most widely copied of all softbox systems. However, it is easier to copy a design than a quality and the Rotalux softboxes remain the best in their class. They are lightweight and unlike many other softboxes, fold down just like an umbrella and can be easily stored in the carrying bag, which is included.
The quality of light is outstanding because of their construction and the internal diffuser provides the softest and most even light possible.
The optional deflector set takes advantage of the unique Elinchrom central shaft to modify the softness / hardness and colour like no other softbox system.

Speedrings and Adapters
Elinchrom users are not the only ones who can take advantage from the Rotalux softbox system.
There are now optional adapter speedrings for other brands of studio flash. Only one adapter ring is required for any shape and size of Rotalux.




Deflectors
Elinchrom compacts and flash heads offer the unique centred umbrella fitting for umbrellas and deflectors. This gives photographers the freedom to easily modify the hardness / softness of their lights. Deflectors can eliminate, soften or tone sharp shadow edges. The compacts work very efficiently with the Elinchrom softbox and reflector range.

Portalite
Portalite softboxes offer great performance whilst remaining ultra compact. Made with the same quality material Elinchrom uses for the Rotalux range, the Portalite is a professional and competitively priced system.
