Just got one of these beauties... using it on a D1.

The clamp seems a little tighter close than on my Profoto reflectors. (The metal ring on the clamp nearest the front seems to need to strech slightly more...

Is this normal? (Quite possibly but I've no other dish to compare it with).

Better tighter than looser: it's a heavy modifier. Make sure the metal bands are more circular, rather than oval. Not a serious issue, I say.

Turned out the rubber ring wasn't seated properly so it was unduly tight on just one ring.

After a bit of fiddling i got it to sit properly and now it's tight - but in an appropriate Profoto way!

Thanks.
