p.1 #1 · Recommendation for 7" Elinchrom Grids?

Bought a 3 pack from a seller on ebay but they were slightly too large and wouldn't fit. Is there anyone who makes a set for less than $50 / each?

The Impact and Alienbee grids for the 7" reflector should both fit in the Elinchrom 7" reflector. I have the AB versions.

Seven inches seems to vary a lot for grids and reflectors. Perhaps some of it is metric rounding to inches. I bought a set of 4 Impact 7" grids for 7" Profoto reflectors, and they were too small. I fixed them with self adhesive felt pads from a hardware store and they now work fine.

Similar story to Brian. I bought a Speedotron set of grids for a nice price, and they're quite a bit smaller than the Profoto 7" grid reflector. Better smaller than bigger, I guess.

hopefully the AB grids will either fit or be slightly smaller. The ones I ordered off ebay were too large. I guess I could have taped them on!

The Buff grids and Speedotron grids fit my Elinchrom reflectors.

Yo can also get the cheap grids from Calumet Photo. They fit fine and so do the Speedo grids.

got the buff grids today. They are a little small but they work great. Thanks for the recommendations. It was not only cheaper than the ones off ebay but came with 4 instead of 3 rings.
