The Fstoppers Flash Disc Is Now Available In Limited Supply

UPDATE: WE'RE SOLD OUT - 6 years ago I built a collapsible softbox that could easily fit in my pocket while I was shooting weddings. I built this product for myself and never dreamed that it would become a real product one day. 2 years ago Patrick and I set out to have the "Flash Disc" mass produced and patented. We just received our patent and first batch. Order now and get 3 before Christmas.

Our first order was for 1000 units. We sent out an email a couple of weeks ago to those of you who have purchased products in the past and gave you the first opportunity to buy. We sold 600 units in 48 hours. Due to the fact that this is just a sample sale/proof of concept, Patrick and I are mailing these units ourselves. We have decided to sell them in boxes of 3 for $100 each. When they officially go on sale sometime in 2014 they will be around $50 each. We now have approximately 100 boxes of 3 units left to ship. If you purchase today we will mail them out tomorrow and you will get them before Christmas. For this sample sale we are only able to mail products to the USA.

will you guys kickstarter this as well?

Maybe, we are seeing how much a full 5,000 unit run will cost. We will keep everyone posted.

I wonder if I can squeeze a small LED panel into it for filming interviews in the field....

Does anyone have a picture of the bottom where it attaches to the speedlight?

I have used a small LED panel into them. It really varies depending on the size of your panel though....and because the system uses essentially bounced light, you might lose a lot of power from already low powered led light.

if anyone has one too many of these things, I would be happy to let you make some profit off of me :)

What a brilliant entrepreneur. I really like this guy. Keep it up.

Let me sell you another useless light modifier

got a question on this, can this be used on a bare bulb flash like the cheetah light?

I want one!! anyone selling I will get one!! :)

Thank you Fstoppers, just got my 3 flash discs today, going to do some real world test tommorrow and Merry Christmas and super thanks again!!!!!

I'm bummed...I want one...

When do you expect more supply? I need to get these.

I had a corporate headshot shoot some month ago...today I had to go back for some other reason and put the flashdisc in my bag (Just in case) And as it happens, I was asked if I can shoot some headshots of an employee, because she was missing last time. I gave it a shot (was shooting with my eyefi card to the iPad to see immediately what it looks like)

Of course it will not replace a setup with 4 studio strobes, but it does really well. My customer was happy too, because I was able to accomplish that job in about 15 minutes.

Thank you guys for a great product, that helped me to make others happy ;)

As soon as I find some time, I will do a review on my blog.

thank you Fstoppers, just got them and finally used them (sold the 3rd one to a friend), can you guys make one to fit a Cheetah light (godox wistro ad360) i tried it on mine but i didnt want to rip the strap inside

Does anyone still have one of these for re-sale? Please contact me if you do! I'm located in Canada.

Looking for a Flash Disc if anyone has one for sale I will buy it! Thanks,

When will this product be available again??

mh..i never had a soft box, but i start to get interested in portrait pictures..so, would that be something i could use for the start to practice on friends and will you ship the final product to europe :D?
