This snoot does a good job, and is a quick and cheap way to narrow your light source, as well as add some color to your shot! I can't say there are many pros outside of cost - this does what it is supposed to, but nothing more. Snoots are used to narrow a light source. This one has the additional secondary function of colorizing the light.Things to consider: - Metal construction, durable and well built. The grid on the inside has rough edges, so don't cut yourself. - The snoot can and will HEAT UP in use. This is common with snoots and other metal accessories - lights get hot! It may slow you down if you're trying to change colors since you have to wait for it to cool. - The gels can only handle so much output. If you shine too much light through them (particularly the G, Y, and B gels) they start to de-saturate. These gels are best used with low power. My 200w lights are only running at 5%-20% depending on the color. If your key light is very bright to may have issues getting these to compete. *One physical fix could be simply adding more layers of gel, if you have them. - The beam is pretty well defined, again 90% for 20% cost. This is not a projector lens, so if you shoot it at an angle you will get an oval. You also have no control of the light beam angle. No fault of the product, thats just what snoots do.I use it to add a colored highlight on the side of a subject.You could use it to create a pretty rough spotlight on your subject.You could use it to create a circular burst behind your subject - but you'll have to place the light right behind your subject and shoot straight back if you want a circle.TLDR:If this snoot doesn't satisfy your needs, the issues are with likely- color saturation (which can be fixed with a few cheap accessories/gels) or- excessive heat (which can be fixed with some patience).- It's primary function is to narrow light.- It's secondary function is to color light. If your primary goal is to add color to a scene, there may be many other products that do it better, depending on your needs.If you're still not satisfied, you probably aren't looking for a snoot or you probably care more about specs than you do art - and you probably wouldn't be reading this review!

For the price, it’s fine. For anyone wanting to try a snoot, it’s a good first step. But it is pretty lightweight and it already dented a bit. But that build quality is what you expect at that price point.

If you’re looking at this, just buy it. Does what it says on the box, comes with all the bits, isn’t going to fall apart after a week.I have bought a lot of Neewer stuff and it all fits the same pattern - super cheap, and serviceable. If you want any better you’re paying about ten times more, and you don’t need any better unless you’re using this particular piece of equipment hard or frequently. This is no exception.

I needed this for a quick project but didn't want to spend a lot, this was perfect. I'm not sure how this would be different from a more expensive one, but it sends the light out beautifully and doesn't get (too) hot.

What is the functionality of this item is really good, it does heat up extremely much. It is actually caused my godox lights to overheat and that wasn’t even after shooting with them for a horse but merely for about 30 minutes

A decent speed light snoot especially for low key photos. It includes gels and a grid. It fits perfect with my speed light ring (either make sure you have one or make sure you purchase one with this).I’ve used this item several times and I am very happy with the results.

Il classico accessorio che finché non c'è l'hai pensi che sia solo un giocattolo, e che poi invece lo usi dappertutto come il prezzemolo ! Questo snoot della Neewer è decisamente ben fatto , robusto alluminio che si adatta perfettamente all'attacco bowens al quale rimane saldamente collegato senza incertezze.Grazie a questo tipo di attacco si può usare indifferentemente sia con flash cobra che da studio , con quest'ultimi l'unica attenzione dev'essere posta alla lampada pilota , che essendo compressa nel tubo rischia di surriscaldare il tutto. Interessante, visto il prezzo, la fornitura di una griglia a nido d'ape per indirizzare ancora più linearmente il fascio di luce, che andandosi ad incastrarne nel cappuccio dello snoot rimane saldamente al suo posto anche inclinando quest'ultimo.Non trovo invece molto utili i dischetti colorati in quanto preferisco le gelatine sulla testa dello speeedlite, ma siamo nel campo delle preferenze personali.PRO *pezzo più che accessibile *notevole robustezza *attacco bowens *griglia e dischetti colorati inclusi nel prezzo *ottima gestione del fascio luminosoCONTRO *la griglia a nido d'ape non da l'idea di durare molto,sembra lamierino di bassa qualità *occupa spazio in borsa in quanto ovviamente non è comprimibileIn sintesi un gadget economico ma estremamente utile in molte situazioni , come ad es. per fare illuminazioni spot su piccoli oggetti come gioielli,orologi etc, oppure per illuminare creativamente gli sfondi , o ancora per usarlo come rim light per "accendere" i capelli del soggetto. E sicuramente troverete altri mille modi di usarlo. Spedizione Amazon velocissima ed impeccabile come sempre di un oggetto consigliato senza riserve.

I don't know why there is a star rating for "Brightness" on something that doesn't create light but if you're expecting this to turn your flash into a spotlight, it will not. This is a simple durable snoot that will shape your light for more select illumination. The included grid will tighten the spot and give it a more defined edge,color effect gels are effective but a heavier material would be easier to handle and more durable but the distance form your flash tube also allows you to use any gels you want.
