Q: 2. What are the dimensions of the interior baffle?

Q: 3. Would this be the correct ring for the Profoto B1 light?

A: The picture shows the octa bank not the ring. I have a Hensel and got the ring that lets me attach the RFi bank to it. Since you have a B1, you are just going from Profoto to Profoto and will not have any problem.There's always a speed-ring that will work.

Q: 4. Will this used on the Profoto Speedlight Speedring?

A: You need special speeding for this modifier.

Q: 5. Do we know of the difference in quality( light quality and build quality) between the new OCF range compared to RFI?I know they are designed to be more portable but at what cost?I can't find any reviews online yet.Cheers

A: The light quality should be similar to the light quality to the RFi light modifiers. Due to the intent of the Profoto B1 and B2 lights (designed for mobility or photographers on the move), the Profoto OCF light modifiers are designed to be much lighter, and are made from strong glass fiber. It was also designed specifically for these light fixtures, which use LED modeling lights instead of the brighter (and much hotter) halogen modeling lights used with Profoto's other studio light fixtures. However, due to the construction material of the OCF light modifiers, they cannot handle the heat of the halogen modeling lights, which the RFi light modifiers were designed for and are better apt to handle the heat. As stated, the light quality may be identical (or at the least, similar) to the RFi light modifiers. The build quality does differ, as the OCF modifiers are more lightweight (and the material make them more economical as well), but they are simply not recommended for use with all Profoto equipment; instead, they are recommended only for Profoto's OCF system. (Do note the B1 and B2 lights can accept all Profoto light modifiers, including the RFi system; it is just the reverse is not so.)

Q: 8. Would you recommend the Profoto 3; RFi Octa Softbox with B10's? Is it too heavy? Too cumbersome to set up? I do mostly on location lighting. Thanks!

A: Yes , but not larger

Q: 9. Will the assembled 3' octa fit in the back seat of a car, say an Accord?

A: Yes sure! You can also undo the velcro a bit of the softbox which makes it even easier to place it in some tight areas!

Q: 10. Dose this product connect straight to the Profoto RFi Speedlight Speedring? I want to mount 2x cannon speed lights .

A: Yes; the only speedring that is compatible with the Profoto RFi Octa Softbox (4') is the Profoto RFi Speed Rings, which includes the Profoto RFi Speedlight Speedring.
