 Not bad for the $$$ August 19, 2008
I've used the Photogenic Eclipse umbrellas exclusively, but the most recent one I got opened up almost flat. I figured that a different umbrella wouldn't be a problem so I got a couple of these from Adorama. I only had to re-calibrate my custom white balance for these umbrellas using a digital target and we were good to go. They are kind of stiff out of the wrapper, probably because it has a removable cover. Overall though, it works just find and I haven't had any issues with it.
 NOT COLLAPSIBLE! Good otherwise August 15, 2008
I feel like an idiot because I didn't think to check that it would be collapsible before I ordered it. I needed something portable, that would fit in my backpack. The shaft of this doesn't even telescope, it's one long piece.
 Very pleased with this product June 21, 2008
I just started doing studio work. Of the many umbrellas from which to choose, this is a wonderfully versatile reflective and shoot through option. The black/silver reversible backing is easily removed and, when on, is well seated over the primary umbrella. Excellent value, as well.

This was billed as being a good started lighting kit when paired with an SB800. Not really, you should really use this with a monolight and if you are going to buy a monolight then a soft box is the way to go. As far as it being what they advertised it to be, it is that, just not the results I was hoping for.
Cant beat the quality or the price. March 22, 2008
Only complaint is the shaft is very thin metal and my clamp crimped it a little when I tightened it. Besides that, another great product from adorama!
