Phottix REX90 Octagonal Softbox (35″)
The Phottix REX90 is a professional-grade, 35-inch (90cm) octagonal softbox designed for photographers who need a larger, more encompassing light source without the setup headaches of traditional modifiers. Featuring an innovative one-step “pull-up” quick-folding mechanism, the REX90 can be deployed or collapsed in seconds, making it the perfect choice for fast-paced wedding photography, on-location interviews, and high-end studio portraits. Its 8-sided geometry creates a soft, natural wrap-around light that is both flattering and highly controllable.

Expanded Light Quality & Versatility
Large 35″ Surface Area: The 90cm diameter provides a significantly softer light quality than smaller modifiers, making it ideal for full-body fashion shots, large group portraits, and soft commercial lighting.

Natural Circular Catchlights: The octagonal shape produces beautiful, rounded catchlights in the eyes of your subject, mimicking the look of the sun or large window light for a more organic, professional aesthetic.

Pro-Grade Softness: Comes equipped with a removable inner baffle and an outer diffusion panel. This dual-layer system eliminates hot spots and ensures a uniform, creamy light output from edge to edge.

Rapid Setup & Portability
One-Step Quick Folding: The REX90 features a specialized “pull-up” handle system that allows you to lock the ribs into place instantly. When the shoot is over, a single button release collapses the softbox into a slim profile for easy storage.

Ultra-Slim Design: Despite its large working size, the REX90 collapses to a thickness of just 25mm (approx. 1 inch), allowing it to slide easily into your gear bag without taking up valuable space.

Lightweight Construction: Weighing only 670g (approx. 1.5 lbs) without the speedring, it is light enough to be used on standard light stands or even held by an assistant on a boom arm for location work.

Professional Build & Compatibility
Standard Bowens S-Mount: Includes a high-quality Bowens-style speedring, ensuring full compatibility with a massive range of professional studio strobes and COB LED lights.

High-Efficiency Interior: The premium silver-reflective lining is designed to maximize your light’s output while maintaining strict color neutrality for accurate skin tones.

Included Fabric Grid: This kit includes a fabric honeycomb grid, allowing you to narrow the beam and control light spill, adding more drama and contrast to your compositions.

Customer Reviews (4.6 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Ellie Z. ★★★★★

Setup was incredibly easy with the built-in speed ring, and the 35-inch size provides a beautifully soft, even light for portraits. The diffuser material feels durable, and the whole thing collapses down nicely for transport.

Victoria L. ★★★★★

The octagonal shape gives a really pleasing, natural catchlight in the eyes. Light spread is smooth and even across the whole panel, much better than my old square softbox. Build quality feels solid for the price.

Abigail ★★★★★

Set up took about five minutes thanks to the clever speed ring design, and the light it throws is incredibly smooth and even. My portrait subjects’ eyes catch that beautiful octagonal catchlight every time now.
