I own many conventional umbrellas,and have tried inexpensive imitations of this design;this is a better performer than knock-offs. Features 100% light-proof backing, so there is much less scattered light than with shoot-through or reflecting umbrellas in tight shooting areas. Works well with monolights or Speedotron Brown or Black Line flash heads. Very soft light for an umbrella, with just a touch of specularity on foreheads and noses. Good for quick set-up portraiture using 1 40" as main, 1 50 degree backlight, and one 39x72" reflector. Looks excellent with 2 x40" used side-by-side or over-under for skin softening on older ladies.

The Umbrella box is incredibly simple to assemble, fit and use. Its unique lighting effect is achieved by first bouncing the light off the back of the umbrella box and then diffussing it through the coated diffuser panel. Simply insert the flash-head reflector into the umbrella box and close the zipped openings for quick set up.
