    Yes but how do you disassemble it. There seems to be no directions. It's very tightly in and so is it meant to be taken down

    The SE and it’s rods are clutch for travel! If you want something more robust and faster to assemble get the light dome ii. It takes up about 3x as much space for travel. I literally can jam the SE in the gap of a tripod bag WITH the tripod in it

    Why not make it easy to assemble like the light dome 2? With the rods installed instead of having to fight with those rodes to get them in place. It's a pain to install those rodes and you know it. And BTW aputure your diffusion material got ripped after the second use. You should double thread it

      @@MediaBuccLA The lightdome mini ii has the easy assembly and is "budget friendly and smaller", so having this pain-in-the-a$$ assembly is not about Aputure trying to lower the cost. It is just bad design. But they seem to have realised this and newer models have the easy assembly.

    I owned one of these for approximately two hours. Aperture makes the absolute best lights but somehow also makes the absolute worst soft boxes. Did somebody actually design that rod system? It was just a royal pain in the rear to put together. I could not imagine showing up on set and having to spend a half hour trying to get these rods into the mount. Upgrading to a generic that pops up like an umbrella…at half the price.
