Questions & Answers

STACEY N : How is the light from this DEEP umbrella different from a regular umbrella?DAVID C : This shape throws a wider but more focused light than a regular umbrella.JAMES D : What type of light are you using, fixed light, flash or mono light?WILLIAM S : The light from a deep umbrella is more concentrated (slightly) and doesn't spill over into the surrounding as much as a regular umbrella. However, the main reason I got it besides the deep design. This design makes it easier able to use a diffuser sock to soften the light making it's light similar to a soft box with round catch lights. It can be brought very close to the subject(s) yielding a high quality of light.
Shopper : Is the black cover removable, ie does it convert to a shoot-through?NICHOLAS V : It is a single piece and it is not removable.JAMES D : No, it’s stationaryALLISON K : No. You can get a diffuser to soften light though. It’s beautiful light when you use it that way. Place it closePETER L : No, it does not. It is just a regular umbrella in that regard. If you are looking for diffused light from this modifier, add the removable scrim. With it, this umbrella puts out beautiful soft light.Jeffrey R : The black material does not off. You’d need a translucent to shoot throughWILLIAM S : No, the back cover isn't removable. You can by a diffuser that will provide the lighting similar to a softbox.
Jeffrey R : How does this umbrella attach to my strobe?MICHAEL B : You need to have a strobe that accepts the center rod, or if using. Speed light, you’ll need an umbrella adapter for your light standCHARLES C : Which strobe do you have?AMIT D : If you are using studio lights then they will have a hole with a wing nut that locks the umbrella in place. I'd you are using a off camera flash then you will have to by an adapter.FRANK W : Most strobes have an opening that is aligned with the light direction that accomodates the umbrella shaft. Ive seen the hole above, below and in the center of flash tube. Speedlights would require an umbrella bracket.

A well-made umbrella modifier at a great price!

A versatile, well-made umbrella at a great price. I would rate the quality on par with Westcott or other brands that produce umbrellas for photography applications. I appreciate durability and features for a good to great price. Portable studio modifiers can suffer greater exposure to elements that wear them and tear them up, even when a photographer is careful with those modifiers. So, it doesn't make much sense to me to overspend on lighting modifiers. The appropriate approach, imo, is to find the balance between quality and cost and invest in there. Glow hits that balance for me. I have used this umbrella on multiple occasions and I have been pleased with the quality and performance of the umbrella. It's slightly smaller than the 70" Westcott umbrella I own, but performs just as admirably. I'd recommend you consider it.

Great umbrella

This umbrellas actually lays flat when closed which makes it easy to fit in my rolling cart. It feels very strong when opened.

Great Umbrella, Perfect for portraits, inside and out.

Love the pebble textured surface. It's like profoto without the cost. The material could be a little thicker, but I'm sure that's why the price point is where it is.

Decent Enough

It fits. While very thin and wrinkly, it does diffuse the light enough to create a soft box effect, only requiring more feathering than a traditional softbox would. The appearance is semi shoddy in front of clients to be honest, but it works and it's cheap.

Fabric is great and diffuses light effectively around subject

The fabric is perfect for diffusing light. The light wraps around the subject very well and produces a very professional ambient light. The only thing that I could criticize about this model type from Glow is the stem. It feels very thin and hollow. With the umbrella open, holding the end of the stem, you really see the stem bending. In most cases, you're probably not going to mount the stem as you see in the picture but if you do, I can see it bending if you have the stem parallel to the floor or perpendicular to the mounting support. I am using this in the studio but I think if you were to use it outdoors, perhaps consider something with a stronger stem. Other than that, it opens and closes easily. It doesn't change the hue of light. Overall, the function of this umbrella is great. Just be aware of the stem.

Great quality of light with the diffuser

my favorite modifier so far. Easy to use with the diffusion face, quick setup and can do full length portraits if needed. IMages were awesome, i can use it with the deep parabolic or by itself if needed.

Soft, Evenly Dispersed Lighting.

I have had an opportunity to use this umbrella on a couple of shoots. In one instance I set up a photo booth using this umbrella and AD200 as main light, Nikon D750 on a tripod and a remote trigger. The set-up worked flawlessly all night and guests ended up with fantastic portraits and small group shots. This umbrella delivered soft, evenly dispersed lighting.

Great Deep Umbrella Modifier. It really did what it was sent out to do. Definitely worth the money and it's also serves at different ranges as focused light modifier by pulling the umbrella closer to the light (strobe).

Love it.

By Ruben M.

This is the best modifier for anyone who shoots with a flash. It's light, it's easy and it's almost idiot proof. You can't beat an umbrella as far as setup, ease of use, light weight and simple. I love using umbrellas. I have a 7 foot but it was too big for indoors so I got this one. Since it's deep the light is a bit more directional than a standard one. Silver really makes the image pop.

Be at the forefront of professional photography lighting with the Easy Lock Large Deep White Fiberglass Umbrella (51"). This premium lighting modifier is engineered to enhance your photographic results with its large, deep, parabolic design that ensures efficient and even light distribution. The white interior of the umbrella is meticulously crafted to produce gentle highlights, sharp details, and the most diffused indirect lighting, complemented by soft shadow definition.

The Easy Lock mechanism revolutionizes the user experience by eliminating the common frustrations associated with traditional umbrellas. Its innovative design features a comfortable grip around the shaft for effortless opening, coupled with a wide release button that allows for quick and painless shoot setup. This feature is particularly beneficial for photographers who need to adjust their lighting swiftly and reliably during a session.

Constructed with durability in mind, the umbrella boasts a robust fiberglass frame, ensuring it can withstand the rigors of both studio and on-location shoots. The resilient fabric and black opaque exterior layer minimize light loss, maximizing the reflective capabilities of the white interior finish. This makes the umbrella an ideal choice for those seeking a versatile fill or key light source.

The Easy Lock Large Deep White Fiberglass Umbrella (51") is not just about functionality; its deep parabolic shape is scientifically designed to create a focal point that directs light efficiently. When the light source is aimed at this focal point, it reflects off the umbrella's surface at varying angles, yet exits with parallel rays for a more controlled and powerful output.

Moreover, the shape and size of this umbrella contribute to the creation of flattering catch lights in a subject's eyes, a detail that portrait photographers will find invaluable. The larger the light modifier and the closer it is to the subject, the softer and more seamless the transition from highlight to shadow, resulting in a more natural and appealing photograph.

Included with this high-quality Glow product is a fitted, durable fabric pouch for convenient transport and storage, ensuring that your umbrella remains protected and in pristine condition for years to come.

Choose the Easy Lock Large Deep White Fiberglass Umbrella (51") for its ease of use, superior build quality, and exceptional light control capabilities. Elevate your photography with this indispensable tool that sets the standard for portable and effective lighting modifiers.
