I ordered an 86" silver PLM in March and have not heard a thing about them since. Has anyone been receiving them during that time?

Many thanks,
Andrew

We don’t have an exact date as to when we will receive the backordered PLM items. We are hoping we will have them some time next month. The Parabolic Light Modifiers that we will be getting are going to be Version II. Version II will have the smaller umbrella shaft (7mm) as well as an optional speed-ring type cage (included) to allow exact centering of the Parabolic Light Modifier umbrella on all Paul C. Buff, Inc flash units. We greatly apologize for the delay, we are working diligently to get these in stock however since this is a improved design we are working with different vendors and inspecting several samples from different vendors which is taking a bit more time than we had anticipated. We are being extremely particular as to make sure that the ones we receive will be exactly how we want them.

After 50+ prototypes being made and a whole lot of design/redesign work, the fabrics are now coming in and production should be starting very soon. I believe the vendors will be able to produce them pretty quickly. Some production is underway now. I don't want to give an exact shipment date until I have more solid schedule from the vendor. I can say it works extremely well in all sizes and configurations.

Really excited to see the light these things create with my Einsteins. I did my first shoot last Sunday with the lights and the color temperature is dead nuts perfect! Very fast, very easy to use and I love the coverage just bare with the domes. Outside we shot 40 people with two lights and everyone had good coverage. It was amazing.

The PLM should be even better.

Are there any updates on release?

I am having fun, can you tell?

Robert

Are there any updates? Still suffering from fabric shortages? Just curious.

There's going to be a 51" again? Now I'm going to have to get the big and the small! :)

The 51" is new. The previous size was 42".
