There is a part on there sight that is a little helpful but basicly you put the bigger end of the four polls into the little square that comes with it and then carfully bend them and slide them into the inside of the softbox. There's little sleves on the inside they go in. It feels like you're going to break them but they do go in. I haven't been able to find the light they talk about that it's made for and I don't think they just sell the light. So if anyone knows where to get it let me know Kevin 2006-10-30T20:54:23Z Re: New help with new lighting equipment DzrtRat67 http://Budgetfilming.tribe.net/thread/90af35c0-36c8-4327-81d6-0cf1ab8290ae#347bbf5a-5b68-4de1-a2ef-23db4487e4e5 2006-10-16T14:20:26Z 2006-10-16T14:20:26Z Most softboxes (chimeras) connect to the lights via a "speedring". The speedring will have holes that you bend the ends of the rods from the softbox into. Then the unit simply slips into the barndoor ears of the lights. What light kit did you get?

Nothing however came with instructions on how to assembly. Some is straight forward but the lighting boxes are like a puzzle to me. I can't figure out how to attach them to anything either. Any suggestion? The light boxes came from amvona.com Their on-line Q&A suck. A few general words and no photos. Doug Doug 2006-10-11T00:16:56Z
