Godox CS-85T Slim 85cm Lantern Softbox with Bowens Mount
Product Description
The Godox CS-85T is a slim, collapsible 85cm lantern softbox with a Bowens mount, giving a soft, even 270 degree spread of light for live streaming and video recording, even in tight spaces.
Open it up and the rounded fabric shape wraps light in almost every direction, filling a room with a gentle, shadow-free glow rather than a harsh directional beam. The white interior keeps the output clean and even. Despite the wide spread, it folds down quickly to an expanded depth of just 54.9cm, so it takes up little room in a small studio and packs away easily for location work.
Ideal for: live streamers, videographers, content creators, and photographers working in small studios or on location who want soft, wraparound light from a modifier that sets up and breaks down fast.
Traditional softboxes throw light in one direction and can be bulky to rig and move, which is awkward in a small space. A lantern spreads light across a full 270 degrees for a natural, ambient fill, and the CS-85T does this while staying compact and quick to collapse. Its widely compatible Bowens S mount fits a broad range of studio lights, and it accepts an optional skirt (sold separately) to further shape and direct the light.
Key Features
- 270 degree beam spread: the rounded lantern shape casts soft, even light in almost every direction for a natural, wraparound fill with gentle shadows.
- Compact and portable: at 85cm across it delivers broad, soft light while still fitting into small studios and travelling easily for location shoots.
- Slim 54.9cm expanded depth: the shallow set-up depth keeps it out of the way in tight spaces and packs down small for transport.
- Quick set-up and breakdown: the collapsible design opens and folds in seconds, so you spend less time rigging between setups.
- Widely compatible Bowens S mount: fits a broad range of studio strobes and continuous lights, so it works with gear you likely already own.
- Accepts an optional skirt: add a skirt (sold separately) to control spill and direct the light more precisely when needed.
