    BEFORE YOU BUY!
    1 (one ) Chimera 1880 20" Diameter Lantern Softbox.  I purchased this new and it was used for one special project. It's been in storage ever since.  The lantern is in near excellent condition with only a light smudge (you'll have to search to find it) which is about the size of a 52mm lens cap.  It
    WILL NOT
    affect your lighting in any way.
    At some point in time a mouse decided that the add-on skirt that is attached with velcro (which has never been used) would be tasty and chewed a hole in it and the storage sack.  See the photos.   Because of the way the skirt was folded that resulted in two holes.  One that measures about 1 1/2" x 3/4" and another that measures 1/4" x 5/8".  They can easily be repaired with duct tape or an iron on patch or the skirt can be used as is if you decide to use it.  Again, the skirt is new and it is clean. Hole in storage sack measures about 2" long by 1/4" wide.  There is a much smaller hole at the corner of the Chimera label.
    Support rods have a slight bend to them which is normal as when they are inserted into the lantern and speed ring they want to take the shape of the softbox which in this case is rounded.  Lantern has been stored in a smoke free environment if that is important to you. Lantern is ready to go.  The only thing you'll need to add is a speed ring that fits your flash / strobe head. These sell new for 1
    Includes: Standard 20" Lantern -  Lightbank Body - Skirt for Lantern -  4 Support Rods - Storage Sack
    Description Chimera Standard Lanterns are a durable alternative to a traditional paper ball or "China Ball" lantern. With a 360-degree full-diffusion body, standard lanterns are almost completely spherical, allowing for an omnidirectional soft light. Hand-sewn with Chimera's proprietary high-heat materials, Standard Lanterns are compatible with all Strobe and Video Pro speed rings. A removable skirt that allows you to flag either one or two of the Standard Lantern's four sides is included. Fixtures with fully-exposed bulbs or flash tubes are recommended to properly illuminate the lantern.
