Aputure Light Dome III (35.1")

This Dome III, in my opinion will wear down faster than the previous version 2. The reason is that in order to assemble/disassemble it you need to push it against the ground. I can see this wearing down and eventually tearing the fabric where the rods terminate if you are doing this on rough ground. You could try to assemble this without the ground, but it takes some serious muscle. Disassembly without the ground I don't think is possible, and when I tried to get close a few times it would violently pop apart since everything is under pressure/tension. Felt kind of dangerous without using the ground. ALSO, unlike the previous version, this version does not come with a gel holder or inner baffle, although the velcro straps are there for the baffle and the old gel holder will fit if you have one handy. I think the version 2 was a much better value. Currently I don't see that sells a gel holder or baffle, but some other sites have the gel holder for €40-€50, and the inner baffle for €10.
