Q: 1. Where can I find the other fabrics/modifiers for these Skylite Rapid frames?

A: Just search the site for SKYLITE RAPID SMALL FABRIC and you will see several choices in addition to the silver/white and 1.25 stop diffusers that come in this kit.

Q: 2. I don't have an assistant but I have 2 tripods and one C-stand. How can I hold this diffuser on location? Do I need a clamp or something?

A: We do not suggest tripods to support a 6x6 as it is a big unit to work with in order to properly support the unit. Please review the following item to support the frame. Impact Turtle Base C-Stand Kit (10.75', Chrome) BH #IMLSCT40MK • MFR #LS-CT40MK https://bhpho.to/39hkvpP Impact 6" End Jaw Vise Grip BH #IMME106 • MFR #ME-106 https://bhpho.to/2Ly7StF

Q: 3. What light stand do you recommend for this unit?

A: It built well and its light for what it is... However I do recommend a C Stand while using it - especially if you are outside or at high angles. A sturdy Monfrotto stand can be used indoors if mounting from below. Hope that helps

Q: 6. Does this black/white reflector have any seams in it and what material is the reflector made from? Will it survive being folded and unfolded over a long period of time or will it degrade where its folded when collapsed after shooting?

A: From the MFR: This fabric does not have seams. The clips along the edges of the fabric will stretch it taught when attached to the frame. There may be very minor creasing like any fabric, but since this is a reflector, this will have no effect on the quality of light bounced back (or absorbed in the case of the black side).
