I bought that exact thing. The light coming from the Westcott Apollo is certainly nice. You're able to control spill relatively well. However, it can be cumbersome to set up and use if you have to adjust the light output manually. As your Pocketwizards will negate that need, I suppose the Apollo would work well for you. A big negative, though, is that you have limited freedom of movement to position the softbox outside of the normal straight up-and-down. Using a mounting arm (bought separately or created on your own) can alleviate that problem.


If I were you, I'd do a search on ebay for "Speedlight Softbox." There you'll find a variety of sizes of collapsible softboxes that, I've found, are much easier to use (I have a similarALZO branded 15" softbox that is just great...small, but great).
