Comments about Photogenic Photogenic 45" Eclipse Umbrella with White Satin Interior & Black Cover.(EC45BC):
The umbrellas are set in just a few minutes. The quality of the shadows is consistent so it is very easy to have a floor plan with positioning of the umbrellas and the subject and to repeat the same set up over and over

Comments about Photogenic Photogenic 45" Eclipse Umbrella with White Satin Interior & Black Cover.(EC45BC):
This umbrella is a good quality product that gives the flexibility of bounce or shoot through with the removeable black cover. I haven't tried but I would think this umbrella might not work real well for shoot through using speedilites. The silver inner lining is pretty reflective for bounce but might inhibit too much light for shoot through unless using a decent watt second strobe.

This works perfectly for my small studio. Reflects light really well and consistently from my 580EXII.

Comments about Photogenic Photogenic 45" Eclipse Umbrella with White Satin Interior & Black Cover.(EC45BC):
Easy to use and transport, pretty good build quality, seems to be better used as a reflective umbrella as opposed to shoot through.

This is nice well made umbrella that serves the purpose. Fair deal, what else can you ask for.

Comments about Photogenic Photogenic 45" Eclipse Umbrella with White Satin Interior & Black Cover.(EC45BC):
I like to use these to light my background when doing studio work and even use the 60" on my main light sometimes. Very nice build quality and they really spread the light nicely. I wouldn't be caught without at least a couple of these umbrellas.

Comments about Photogenic Photogenic 45" Eclipse Umbrella with White Satin Interior & Black Cover.(EC45BC):
Ive purchased Umbrella (Modifiers) from Impact, Smith-Victor and now Photogenic.
The Photogenic Eclips is no joke, by far it has been the best for my uses of a non shoot through modifier.
The Photogenics Eclips black backing is just what I needed to ensure a perfect bounce. I recommend the Eclips for anyone needing it for the same purpose as me.
Other modifiers such as my S-V and Impact, you can see right through the black backing even with just the modeling light on (NOT GOOD)
Photogenic products have my best vote.

Comments about Photogenic Photogenic 45" Eclipse Umbrella with White Satin Interior & Black Cover.(EC45BC):
As a full time photographer I rely on equipment I buy for a reasonable price to last for years and years of semi rugged use. I've owned two satin eclipse umbrellas since 1995 and used them nearly daily. A word of caution- whenever used outside they make a great sail; weigh down your light stand, Once they fall you'll have to buy new.

Good value for the money spent and is very well made and easy to use, ie, removal and replacement of the black cover

Comments about Photogenic Photogenic 45" Eclipse Umbrella with White Satin Interior & Black Cover.(EC45BC):
I used this umbrella as my primary diffuser until I purchased my softboxes. I now use it when shooting on location and when I want to diffuse my remote powered external flash. Versatile with shoot thru and bouncing. Black cover works great to block light from reaching camera lens.
