These gels are a hard plastic so I expect them to last much longer than the thin flimsy ones I had been using. The color selection isn’t as wide but with the magnetic ends you can combine 2,3 or more to get a wide range of colors. The only downside is they didn’t come with any kind of bag or box to store them in. I’m using a ski google micro fiber bag to store them and to take them to jobs.

I recommend investing in these gels if you're looking to take your flash photography to the next level. They are versatile and easy-to-use tools that can help you to create unique and exciting lighting effects in your photos!

ALERT: DO NOT USE THESE if you don't want to kick up your game using creative lighting techniques. These updated gels are ultra-convenient (don't need the holder anymore - YAY!), and they quickly facilitate your creative and unique vision. Use them individually or combine them. Do yourself a huge favor and purchase these right now. Just do it.

Like all MagMod products they are so easy and quick to use. I have used traditional gels in the past that were such a pain to use that I found myself not using them… now I use my gels much more frequently. Quality and durability are top notch.
