There's a lot of customer that ask me what is the difference between softbox and octadome/octabox. To be honest, I'm not an expert in this lighting subject. What I can say is that Octadome gives you a soft diffuesd light that creates a great round shape in the eyes of the eyes of the model instead of a square thing compared to the softbox. THe larger the octadome, the softer light is produced and also removing the shadow behind the wall. Octadome can also be used as a background to create a white background with no shadows. The round Octadome shape makes it look rounder in the eyes of the model which simulates the sun which appears more flattering for shooting humans. For softbox instead, it creates a square reflection in the eyes of the model which simulates the look of a source of light from a window. Well it depends on what you like actually to choose between these two. So here is a video comparison made by Jay P Morgan, a great photographer that I have always liked to watch his tutorials as it gives me an idea of how the studio equipments effect will look like. Enjoy the video.
