How does this connect with the Fotodiox with Bowens speedring? Does it take the rods directly, or does it screw into the fotodiox's metal mount?

It fits all Bowens type speedrings. I have a Mola Demi Beauty dish with a Bowens Speedring and I use this bracket to attached a Nikon SB-900. Works flawlessly!

I have the regular silver metal Bowens speedring, the soft box rods connect to that piece. Then the metal piece plugs into the black hoop shape seen here. Once it has been attached you finger tighten that screw you see in this image. Hth.

It has a 1/4" fastener like on your tripod that holds it in place. It's the exact same process as mounting it to a tripod or base plate.

The flash unit has a 58mm thread and the Tamron 90mm lens has a 55 mm thread. It does not fit, but if you get an adapter, it should work. Check out http://amazon.com/Fotodiox-Metal-Anodized-Black-55mm-58mm.

The Fotodiox Aperture control isn't a reversing ring. It doesn't do anything that a reversing ring does. A reversing ring attaches to the front element of a lens to allow you to mount the lens backwards. The Fotodiox Aperture control attaches to the rear element of a Nikkor G-style lens to allow you to set the aperture (since the G lenses don't have aperture control rings) when the lens is mounted in a reverse position. You'd buy this because, presumably, you already have a reversing ring on a G lens and want to be able to control the aperture of that lens when it's mounted in the reverse position.

It fits Bowen style mount. I'm not sure what style speed ring Impact strobes use. Anything that uses Bowen style can be used with this item. It comes with the speed ring

i believe you would need a flashpoint to bowens speedring to mount the octabox to the rovelight. look on amazon or adorama.

not sure. looking at pro master info online doesn't specify what attachment system they use. The ePhoto has what I believe is a Bowens compatible attachment (silver disk upper right). I use the strip with the speed light attachment (lower right). Can't give you any more info than that.

I recently bought a Flashpoint RL600b Monolight from Adorama. There were two versions of the light. The one I chose had a "b" on the end (i.e. RL600b) because it was the one with a Bowens S mount. The other had a proprietary mount. I believe you have to specify whether or not you want the Bowens mount, so the original poster asking the question may have the other one.

The lens has a metal plate with screw holes for mounting on a tripod. I have a couple of quick-release lens mounts that came with my tripod. I screwed one on this lens and leave it there, that way I can attach and detach the lens from the tripod without having to take the time to screw it on. It works great. You should have no problem mounting this lens to your tripod.

Hmm... I got one of these for my Canon and had no problem with it. It attaches via the bayonet mount and my 50mm lens screws onto that without any problems.

You have to find the connector with the correct angle it is a screw mount and you can usually get a grab bag of different connector mounts for cheap. There is a plate on the chest harness that attaches to the plate on the camera you have mounted with the screw. The plates snap in place.

The thin metal ring has an adhesive on one side that attaches permanently to your lens. The filter then attaches to the ring via the magnet to the metal ring. You can buy extra metal rings to attach to other cameras and they now offer a threaded ring to threaded filters. See their website at: http://carryspeed.com/collections/magfilter

Thank you for your inquiry. All of our strobes are compatible with Bowen Speed Rings. The Reflector does come with this strobe. Please let us know if there is anything further we can assist with. Thank you!

Hello, Robert, Since Profoto is a relatively big manufacturer of strobes, you should be able to find a speed ring for it.

I have the Nikon adapter and it fit my F mount lenses. This is a manual adapter and I purchased it because I had older lenses I cared to used on my new digital camera. Simple adapter and works as expected.

Can you send me a link to the bowens speed ring or any accessories I can purchase for this strobe. I'm planning on purchasing 2 of these lights tomorrow

It connects to the lens I think. I bought one, but it was for my Canon Rebel EOS digital SLR. Unfortunately, it did not stay fastened, and did not rotate correctly and I had to return it. I wanted it to be able to take candid shots w/o my family knowing I was snapping them, sigh. That was almost a year ago, so I truly do not remember how it attached, but it did not attach correctly in any case.
