The Aputure INFINIMAT Inflatable Clear Softbox w/ Diffusion 4x4 is the clear airbag softbox for the INFINIMAT 4x4 mat, 121 x 121 x 17 cm and 2.26 kg. Inflated, it becomes the structure that holds the mat, diffusion, grid and skirt, so the 4x4 can run clear for maximum output or diffused for a softer source without a separate frame.

FAQ

Does the diffusion attach to the airbag like a fitted sheet?

The diffusion cloths fasten to the clear airbag with hook and loop, so they stay flat across the 121 x 121 cm face and come off when you want the clear airbag for maximum output. On a 4x4 at 1 m and 5,600K, the 1-stop cloth gives 17,030 lux and the 2-stop cloth 14,140 lux.

Why use an inflatable softbox instead of muslin on a frame?

The airbag is the frame. Once inflated it holds the 4x4 mat, the diffusion, the grid and the skirt together, so you skip building a separate frame for the mat and another for the muslin.

What happens if the airbag gets punctured?

The INFINIMAT Patch Kit seals small holes or cracks, and the 4x4 lamp head pack and kits include one. The airbags also have automatic pressure release valves so they are not overfilled.

Does it need refilling on a long install, and is there a no-air option?

Aputure rates the 4x4 airbag at about 7 days of full inflation, and the Air Pump Mini refills it in about 1 minute 50 seconds. For no air at all, the INFINIMAT Rigid Softbox 4x4 uses a collapsible frame instead.
