Yes, you will need the MagGrip 2 to attach any MagMod Modifier onto your flash. It is the "adapter" piece that is the base of our system. It has two super strong rare earth magnets embedded in it so that all of the other MagMod Modifiers (also with embedded magnets) attach to it quickly, quietly, and securely.

While all MagMod 2 products are compatible with the previous MagMod system, you will have the best possible experience when using each modifier alongside other modifiers of the same version.

Molded from a single piece of silicone rubber, the MagGrid 2’s carefully optimized beam pattern provides controlled light coverage and eliminates unwanted light spill, allowing photographers to capture cleaner and more consistent photographs. A single MagGrid 2 focuses your light into a precision 40-degree beam pattern with minimal spill and hotspots. Add a second MagGrid 2 to get an even tighter beam of light. Add additional MagGrid 2s for even greater control.

The MagGrid 2 was optimized for new round-head flashes to be sleeker and smaller on your flash. These new design improvements also make it easier to know which direction to mount to their flash, boosting confidence, speed and ease of flash setup.
