will it support a strobe (alien bees/einstein) and a beauty dish?

hhhmm i am using it with flash light an beauty dish. but i dont know how well it will support alien bees on fully extended. plastic construction seems durable metal parts are durable they should work well for alien bees too but keep in mind that this is only extension arm an clamp no stand is provided

I have used it only to support a Canon speedlite with a Rogue grid. But I imagine it could support practically anything with proper use of the included sandbag. You want to sandbag your light stand, too.

Hi Arseny ... I truly am happy with my boom ext. for the price it works great. It will support the head & dish, however you must have a heavy duty light stand to ensure stability. You will also need sand bags! at least two for the base and one for counter balance. I hope this helps

It's possible. If the outside dimension of the star hub closely matches one of the hub shims supplied, it should work.

It easily holds alien bee strobes with beauty dishes and softboxes. I really like this stand. It folds up easily and you can take it with you, note that it bigger and heavier but still portable.

I think this one would work fine. It has 3 globes so it gives a lot of light. They all work off the same electrical box.

This is 2 light stands with umbrellas. If you have speed lights that work off camera then yes

This bracket will work with any flash, if it's the bracket you're talking about. If it's the 28" beauty dish that is pictured on this page, then this particular dish will work w/ Bowens lights.

It takes a standard Photogenic beauty dish (and also standard Photogenic softboxes). Since I also have Alien Bees - I specifically bought a Beauty Dish with interchangable rings - so I had one for each type of connection.

You need a monolight that's compatible with this beautydish because this beauty dish is a Bowens mount.

Yes, and an Alien Bee 800, because I own both! You won't be disappointed, but this thing is huge! I am still figuring out how I will mount my one light on either the wall ( with a boom ) or ceiling ( with a mount ). This item didn't take too long to put together, either. Hope this helps! Happy shooting!

As long as it fits the softbox and the slave can "see" the other strobe or strobe, it should work. I use it as a background light, which is probably a better option.

This is for Alien Bees, but if the mounting is the same as a B400/800 etc, which it appears to be, then yes.Perhaps email Paul C Buff for a definitive answer. info@paulcbuff.com

Yes. They come with the necessary hardware to connect to several different kinds of strobes, including alien bees

Alien Bees spot light will not fit into this OctoBox. This spot light is designed for 1/2/3 speedlight preferably

The attachment rim of this light is 3 3/4 inch. if the adapter of your soft box is greater than that and, if it has adjustment screws (most do) to attach it, it should work. perhaps the only limiting factor would be the projection and weight of the softbox which might make the stand unstable. However, while my soft box is smaller (3ft X 2ft) I have no issues with instability,

These are made to use with speed lights. I think the alien bee head would be too large.. I use the box often. It's easy to set up.

Yes, it would support those. It's a cheaply made product, so buy with caution.

I think it will do just fine. It is a very bright piece - those 144 crystals reflect a lot of light!If you decide to use it you'll have fun attaching them!
