Great Reflector

I really have no issues with this reflector.. Flashpoint made a huge upgrade on their reflectors. I love the thicker perimeter , it makes it much easier to handle.

Fantastic Deal

This is a great deal on a great product. Pops out quickly and folds neatly back into the included case, making it easy to bring anywhere you need a quality fill light.

Great light shaping tool

I love the subtle gold effect that this reflector provides. I find the gold on the typical 5-in-1 to be way unrealistic and the silver in 5-in-1 is typicaly overly harsh. This is a nice effect because the silver is a half way point between traditional silver and white with the slight added warmth of the gold stripes. The white side has a subtle gold effect that you can barely see which is the way I like it. The 32" size is perfect for a clamshell reflector for head/shoulders shots. I have even used the soft silver/gold side at a distance to light 3/4 and its not overly specular because its a soft silver effect. The only thing I am nervouse about is how long the fabric will last. That being said, this may only be my mis perception based on the way a soft silver fabric needs to be manufactured for that effect. But you know what?, if it only lasts 2 years, so what. At this low price the things can be considered disposible. Last comment, the metal ring folds away for storage in the pouch perfectly. After a couple mroe months of using this reflector, I will likely purchase another larger one for 3/4 and full legnth.

Decent reflector

Works fine on a single subject head shot. Gold side tends to cause squinting in bright sunlight.

Love this reflector!

I love the outcome of my photographs when using the reflector. I wish I bought a little smaller size, as this one is a little bulky for me, but that is just me.

Fabulous deal!

This is a great deal. A great price. The reflector is actually much larger than I expected. Having a white and a gold side makes it all the more useful. I love it.

About Glow Portable Reflector

• Reflected light is the professional's edge in a photo world filled with complicated technologies and expensive demands for more light sources. Reflectors also allow photographers to harness the strongest and largest light source available to them, the sun. A simple well placed reflector will bring life, color and interest to the dullest of subjects.

• The set of Glow reflector surfaces can soften shadows, reveal details hidden in darkness, enhance skin tones, diffuse harsh sunlight, add a sparkle to the eyes,or add contrast to a drab scene. All this power, without cords, in a highly portable kit consisting of 2 different resilient fabric surfaces stretched over the single spring steel collapsible frame.

• The Silver disk adds the greatest amount of reflection, creates specular highlights, and has the greatest reach' of any in the set. Used carefully, it is the hero of your multi light solution'. Silver adds a definite glow to enhance skin tones, making it a favorite tool of fashion and beauty photographers.

• White produces the most even, natural bounce reflection of light and serves faithfully to maintain color balance and beautifully fills any subject relative to the degree of distance placement from the subject.

• White also can be used independent of other light sources to produce gorgeous catch lights in the eyes. Large catch lights imply innocence and liveliness. Even without light directly hitting the white reflector, the white object in the subject's field of view will appear in the eyes as a circular catch light, adding value to portraits and headshots.

• The lightweight steel spring frame twists and folds to 1/3 of its original open diameter and fits into its own small storage case, ready for opening flat as a light modifier in a snap. The use of a stand with a disk holder or VAL is recommended especially when working alone or with multiple disks.
