Help with finding a large rectangular soft box?

[Oppiestudio657]

my current lighting set up in my newborn studio is a pixapro LED100D MKII continuous lighting with a 90cm umberella softbox. I’m wanting to switch the soft box for a large (full body kind of length) rectangular soft box (I guess around 80 inches?) to recreate large natural window light. Can somebody point me in the right direction please?

Thank you for your response, think I’ll need something a little bigger. Have been looking at this https://www.essentialphoto.co.uk/pr...lar-easy-open-umbrella-softbox-with-4cm-grid/

That's the one I was going to suggest, 180x120cm, if you've got the space.

Alternatively, you could maybe fire the light through a scrim, or bounce it off a couple of poly-boards. Even a white wall or whatever.

If shooting stills, you'd be better off with flash.

Took longer than expected.
