Magmod kit starts to get a little more costly. The setup for this shot was the maggrid and magbounce. Including the piece which goes on the flash, this will be over $100. But it is a great, versatile, light weight kit.

Westcott Rapid Box
This is a 26" Octobox which is very well made, and very portable. The downside is that this cost $169. The upside is that it can be used as an octobox and as a beauty dish. And it sets up very quickly.
