The "softness" of the light is controlled by the size of the source
(soft box) in relation to the subject. Generally, you'd need a medium
sized soft box to be soft enough for a head and shoulders portrait.
Of course, only you can decide how soft you need the light for your
style of portraits.

Hi,
I'm looking at getting a Chimera Super Pro softbox and a Canon 580ex
to go with it, but I can only find the Chimera speed ring to fit 540ez
and 550ex. Will this speedring also fit a 580ex?
Also, although this is less EOS specific. Is the XXS softbox (12"x16")
big enough for practical purposes? I'm mostly going to be using it for
portraits and close-up/macro work. It is for portraits I'm more
interested in, since I'm sure it will be enormous for macro. So would
I be better to get the 16"x22" XS ?
