Why settle for ordinary when you can capture extraordinary with the Glow 17" Silver Beauty Dish for Flashpoint Mount  This high-quality light modifier is renowned for creating striking portraiture and fashion images, making it an essential tool for professional photographers. The Glow Beauty Dish employs a unique double parabolic reflector system, expertly designed to achieve distinctive diffusion properties. The end result is a lighting effect that beautifully bridges the gap between a direct flash and a softbox. It gives your images a wrap-around look, similar to a softbox, but with enhanced contrast and a more dramatic, directed beam. The silver finish of this 17" beauty dish not only delivers higher output but also creates more contrast, bringing out the intricate details of your subject. This makes it an ideal choice for head and shoulders portraits, dramatic figure studies, or subjects in tight spaces where softboxes and umbrellas can't deliver the desired effect. The design of the Glow Beauty Dish includes a small opaque reflective cover suspended directly over the light source. This prevents direct light from hitting the subject, instead, the light bounces backwards off the small interior disk and floods the larger bowl of the beauty dish. This results in a wider cast of softer light than a standard reflector, and significantly softer than the harshness of a speedlight. The position of the small center reflector cap is adjustable, allowing you to control the spread to the large bowl and accommodate tall or high wattage modeling lights. The beauty dish also includes a diffusion fabric panel, known as "socks". This translucent diffusion circle fits snugly over the rim of the dish, softening the ring of focused light, lowering contrast, and softening the edges of shadows. Photographers often use the 17" to 22" beauty dish on monolights, flash heads, and speedlights for flattering people shots. It's especially effective for sculpting facial features, creating beautiful shadows, and producing captivating catch lights. The Glow Beauty Dish is available in two interior coatings. The silver finish, as featured in this model, delivers higher output, creates more contrast, and brings out more detail than its white counterpart. The white interior version minimizes hot spots, smoothes skin tone, and reveals less texture. The optional Glow honeycomb grid is a powerful addition to any photographer's lighting arsenal. By covering the aperture of the reflector with the disk, you gain more control of a light source's beam, and feather the hard light for an attractive shadow. This strong directionality can be used to add high key depth for fashion images, and emphasize the model's facial structure as well as the eyes, lips, nose, and chin. In conclusion, the Glow 17" Silver Beauty Dish for Flashpoint Mount is not just a lighting accessory, it's a tool for creating art. It's durable, versatile, and designed to help you capture the best possible images.

Helping me develop a new appreciation for hard light.

Beautiful Light

I'm usually a big fan of the GLOW line of products; however, the way the adaptor just slides into 3 slots on the back with only one screw (which was missing from both shipments and each piece was shipped seperatly) I am unable to use until I can try and find a screw that fits to hold the adaptor in. Have a feeling that even at that point it isn't going to be a tight fit and will most likely rattle. The metal is good as is the over all shape. The inner disk is only held up by tention rods and there is wobble there, could possibly pop out if bummped or if using outdoors and moving around quickly. It would be very difficault to locate one of the rods if they were to fall out while using on location.

Left Stranded

Awesome. I wish I had purchased this a long time ago.  Nice soft light but with more definition than a softbox.  I almost use it exclusively with the soft cover, and in my product photography work I see much more texture and detail in the products.  Very, very nice.  Great quality too.

Just buy it

This beauty dish does the job. It's easy to install and works perfectly.

Does the job

Soft even light.  Can add a grid to control the spill of the light.  Can also add a diffuser to the front to make the light even softer.  I also used the Glow Arch strip softbox to fill in the shadows underneath.

Gorgeous soft light.

Love it. Works well, A+. Thankfully they included the Elinchrom 'converter' and the sock.

Would definitely recommend!

Like the sturdiness as compared to a soft box bc of wind situation . The white plate that covers strobe has very unsteady rods that won't tighten and plate keep falling off . I had to use der clips to hold it on but that looks tacky when I remove the white cover if I need a tad more light and the clips also pop off often. A little annoying .

Could be better

Beautiful light quality.  It also is much more stable in winds than a soft box.  It is my main modifier both outdoors and in the studio.  I recommend the white interior for most portraits.

Beautiful portrait lighting, very reasonable price

I've used several soft boxes and other modifiers but the Beauty Dish is by far my favorite.

Definitely recommend the Beauty Dish

Works absolutely fine. Good specular highlights. If I had to buy again I would get a foldable umbrella style. Annoying to pack and carry on a shoot

Works fine

Making models look good is easy with this beauty dish. Highly recommend!

Become internet famous

Dish works great, but it's bent and looks like if I wanted to get a grid it won't work. The boxes were in good condition so the dish shipped out like that. It's a little disheartening but it doesn't take away from its function.

Works great, but beware of being bent when you receive it

Great quality as any other EZ Glow product. Awesome results.

Great decision

Modifier is amazing! Just be mindful when ordering that the Bowen?s mount adapter ships separately and not together. My adapter delivered one week after the beauty dish itself. Seems like a logistics improvement needed.

Bowen?s adapter shipped separately!

OK. Was a little mis-shapen and had to bend it back to round. Also, one of the screws that held the center reflector was stripped so I had to go get all new screws. Works fine but cheaply made.

Just OK.

Nice, contrasty light.  Even softer with the included sock.  I'm happy I bought a grid also so I have more light control options.

Nice effects

Glow 22" White Beauty Dish for Bowens Mount

Works as a beauty dish should and the price is right. Rods in the center reflector needed tightening and the sock tore at the elastic, Easy fixes.

I do prefer the Visatec Softlight beauty dish as it is much more flexible. The light output also seems better. Could be more about the Visatec moonlight bulb that the modifier though.

Price is right

Great beauty dish to replace my Paul C buff. I use this with my new FJ400 Westcott lights and it is perfect!

Great beauty dish!

This is a lovely beauty dish that gives great highlights to the subject. This is an excellent product.

Excellent Product

Never used one of these before and never really cared for doing portrait work.
I picked up one because I was intrigued by the reviews.
Man did this make a portrait photog out of me when what I shoot is 99% product.

As a commercial product photog I love how easy this made portraits.

I use it with my Alien Bee 800. No complaints here.

Works great

Glow 22" White Beauty Dish ...a light modifier for indoor and outdoor portraiture that is portable strong and reliable plus give me amazing light control for my portraits  ... i am very happy with this product that helps me create amazing portraits without breaking the bank

Glow 22" White beauty dish for Flashpoint Mount

Nice and easy to setup. Bought it to use on single subjects on windy days and studio work.

Ease of use.

Fanatic

This little mount changed everything!
I run a studio and I want to be able to provide high quality modifiers to my clients without passing on tremendous cost to them as well. Being able to use the amazing Glow Beauty dish with my profoto strobes made my setup not only high quality but affordable.

Best tiny too for affordable modifiers

Great Product

Its good for the light it produces..but the flimsy rods the center piece attaches to are horrible..and easily dont hold position..

except for on thing..

Great beauty dish at a great price!!    I use it a lot with or without the sock and grid set for excellent light

Beautiful Beauty Dish!

Does what it’s supposed to! Solid build and no issues
