- The Light Dome II uses industry-grade diffusion material with highly reflective coating. The high-quality cloth preserves your light's original color temperature, and the two layers of diffusion have been specially designed to produce extremely soft light. The outer layer makes your light wrap around your subject while the inner baffle adds another layer of diffusion while eliminating any unattractive cross lines that are often created by fabric-based diffusion.
- The Light Dome II is Aputure's flagship light shaping tool. An upgrade from the First Generation Light Dome, the Light Dome II features even higher quality diffusion fabric, a rapid build and breakdown system, an included honeycomb eggcrate, and several more new additions.
- The new versions of the Light Domes feature a new generation of the quick-release speed ring. You can now easily install and disassemble the dome in less than 1 minute. This new generation addresses the needs of creatives who are on fast-moving sets and need a diffusion solution that can be rapidly set up.
- The Light Dome II comes with two layers of ultra-soft diffusion: Magic Cloth and Silk Cloth. Combined, these materials turn your hard COB light into a beautiful soft light that provides a very even wrap around your subject, making the Light Dome II the perfect diffuser for portraits, interviews, documentaries, music videos, and narratives.
- Generation 2 of the Light Dome now includes a gel holder that is carefully placed to maximize the capabilities of your gels while minimizing the amount of material needed from them.
- The Light Dome II includes a studio grade fabric grid to help focus in your light beam angle to 40 degrees.
- The new Light Dome II is designed to fit with all fixtures from the Light Storm COB family. It is also compatible with a wide variety of Bowens mount lighting systems, the most common mounts used in the world of photography

Beautiful Modifier
This modifier works seamlessly with the Aputuretech 120dii. Creates beautiful light as expected. I would highly recommend this if you were looking for one modifier to light interviews etc.

Superior Attention To Detail
VERY good quality. It's a bit pricey but you get what you pay for. Keep in mind, this thing is BIG. So if you are in a bedroom, expect it to take up a lot of room.
I actually chose to use this with the Newer SL-60w light instead of the Aperture 120d. I understand the newer has a few (small) limitations compared to the 120d, however the amount of money is a big win. Your choice will be upon your use case.
VERY GOOD PURCHASE.

Professional equipment
Sure there are cheaper alternatives for this style soft box, but boy with this you get what you paid for. Even as it pertains to the mechanism used to break down the box. Wonderful equipment.

Great! Best Setup of a softbox ever!
It seems nice in every way and is super easy to assemble. I see some fraying on some edges. Maybe that is normal? Like I see a string hanging on two points of the cone. But it works super well and comes with a egg crate thing to direct the light better.

Fast setup time, great for location shoots
Very pricey, but well worth it once you're in the field. The fastest setup time of any softbox I've had in this size range. Good design, and I love not fussing with rods for 10 minutes in front of a client.

Super fast setup, wonderful quality of light
The Light Dome II is one of a kind because it’s so easy to set up. No more reassembling metal rods like ever other light dome model - all the Light Dome II requires is to press down the rods at the base to set up, then push the metal buttons to release them and disassemble it. A great, highly intuitive, effective product.

Greatest Softbox
Using the light dose mark 2 with the 120 d mark 2 and they are a great combination. The soft box is huge so this isn’t the softbox for you if you don’t have the space. Other than that works perfect setup and break down is quick and easy

Question & Answer
Question :
Setting up this lightdome is harder than expected. Any tips? I feel like I'm going to bend/break the rods when pulling on them.
Answer :
The rods are tuff stuff. But having said that I suggest pulling from the back just below the gray tip. Once you hear the click or see the tab "catch" your set. I hold the dome in one hand at the mount and just one at a time lift each rod. I know others do several at a time with the dome 's mount on the ground but that's never really worked for me. hope this helps
Question :
Hey this is the big one right?
Answer :
Correct The Light Dome 2 is larger than the light dome mini 2.
Thanks!
